Show Notes
In 1902, a man was doing some gardening at home, while he was gardening, he came across skeletal remains. Shocked, he notified the local authorities.
What he found were remains of five infants that had been murdered. Each child had been strangled with white tape, “wrapped in some kind of material,” sprinkled with lime to reduce the smell of decay, and then buried.
As investigators tried to identify the dead children, they realised that the man now lived in the former residence of an infamous baby murderer.
Amelia Elizabeth Dyer killed up to 400 babies over several decades as Britain’s most famous baby farmer.
Listen this week to discover Britain's 'secret' past of Baby Farming.
