Chesham Chronicles

Have you ever thought about the historical crimes in YOUR town? Eleanor Phillips has lived in my home town of Chesham all her life, and in her retirement she has become one of its foremost historians and story-tellers. In this episode, she talks about four crimes spanning more than a century from the swahbuckling tale of highwaymen thwarted by a hero stagecoach driver, to the sinister 'Raincoat Man' who stalked his terrified victims in Chesham and Amersham in 1957. To find out more about the stories we covered in this episode, read Eleanor's articles on the Chesham Museum website.
