Join Your Tour Guide, Local Historian and Author Tony Franks-Buckley for an Exclusive 2 Hour Historic Tour around Bidston Hill & Village and learn about Much of its amazing Myths, Legends and Hidden Secrets.

Nestling in the sleepy out back of suburban Bidston is the hill & woods. Although Bidston is famed for
its marvellous old buildings and pro longed sense of stature, it also contains a large densely packed
wood with many features and buildings including its hidden tunnels

Bidston Village has also played a host of gruesome murders, most notably that of the Williams family which was declared one of the worst murders of the 19th century. Five members of the Williams family, mother Emily Williams and her four children, were discovered buried within the cellar of a building situated near Bidston Hall. When investigating the grisly discovery, police quickly turned their suspicions onto the missing father who had seemingly survived the ordeal. Digging further it became clear that the estranged man had lived under a number of different alias’ in his lifetime and was suspected of killing his previous wife, Marie. At the time journalists had compared Mr Williams to Jack the Ripper, some were convinced he was infact the notorious serial killer.

The area has long been linked to witchcraft, and ancient rock carvings on the site show a man being sacrified. This is just some of the places you will be visiting on this Exciting and Informative Tour
