This work includes two stories - with one link - the hamlet of Litton. The first "Life in Litton Mill", was it the basis for Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist? The second - "The Curse of the Lingard Family" is a tale of murder, highway robbery and brutality.
The small hamlet of Litton nestles in the rolling countryside of the Peak District amid green fields and blue skies. Close to Tideswell, it is the idyllic retreat for those wanting to get away from the pressures of life.
Yet do those that visit realise the hardship and death that abounded there almost 200 years ago? Was it this struggle to survive that led Anthony Lingard the younger to commit murder or his younger brother William to commit highway robbery?
William Lingard committed Highway robbery within sight of his brother's decaying body and was transported to Australia where he endured punishment after punishment.
The story of the Lingard family and those around is one of murder, highway robbery and brutality. When Anthony Lingard the elder married Elizabeth Neal a train of events began that would help change the laws of England
