Currently walking and  linking together all the places associated with the highwayman, Dick Turpin, in Essex. From The Bluebell inn in Hempstead, where he was born, and onto Great Sampford and Thaxted where he had a butchers shop. Then onto Loughton and Traps Hill where he and a gang committed a robbery - his ghost riding down the hill is often seen. Then into Epping Forest where he had a cave for his ill-gotten gains, He married and lived in Buckhurst Hiiil, London but a reward was on his head. He had the Rose and Crown Inn in Enfield, but often escaped when the law came through a back window and rode away on Bess. Eventually he was arrested in York, as his handwriting was confirmed by his school teacher. He was hung and his grave in St. George's churchyard in Yorks can still be seen. He changed his name to John Palmer. A fascinating walk and a fascinating but ruthless character.
