Prisoners, evidence, peelers, rattles, mobs and gangs, Jack the Ripper . . .
In Victorian times, crime increased dramatically. Why did people turn to crime? What crimes did they commit? And how were they caught? The History Detective helps you to answer these questions by finding clues in your local area.
Our detective shows you how to:
- Search the local library and Record Office for evidence
- Find clues in old newspapers, adverts, letters and reports
- Create your own project on Victorian crime
There are also mysteries and puzzles for you to solve as you follow a trail back to Victorian times, when thieves and vagabonds were all around . . .
