British Murders with Stuart Blues
True Crime
In this episode, I tell the story of Barbara Waterhouse, a 5-year-old girl murdered in Horsforth, Leeds, on June 6, 1891.
Whilst out playing with her friends, Barbara suddenly disappeared after last being seen perusing some advertisements through a shop window.
Her body was discovered wrapped in a shawl four days later on Alexander Street in Leeds city centre, a stone's throw away from the Town Hall.
The person responsible for her murder was soon revealed to be 32-year-old weaver Walter Lewis Turner.
He was sentenced to death and hanged at Armley Gaol by James Billington on August 18, 1891.
