Town Moor, Sunderland
Town Moor, Sunderland
The England Coast Path National Trail passes through this green space in the north-east of the City. The interpretive board gives an account of the hardships sustained by the inhabitants in the 19th century. It also tells the tale of Mary Ann Cotton who made a business out of murdering 16 members of her family and three others with arsenic and did quite nicely by collecting the insurance money. She was eventually found out and was hanged in 1873.
