Join us for an entire weekend of murder, mystery and intrigue as you investigate, not one, not two but at least three different murder stories, all connected around the dark past of our own Knuston Hall. Meet Eric Angorra, the psychic detective and his team of students as they embark on an enactment of some of the gruesome secrets associated with the Hall. Will violent reality explode into the world of make-believe and spoil this cosy world? If it does, it will be up to you to interrogate suspects, sift through clues and find the murderer!!!

As winter gives way to spring the countryside of Northamptonshire is full of delights. The first trees are coming into leaf. The winter migrant birds are about to leave and the summer migrants are about to arrive. The first butterflies are still flying and the earliest flowers beginning to bloom. This course, which is designed to introduce people to their local countryside, will include visits to two contrasting nature reserves, both of which are a result of changes made by previous land use.
