The unveiling of a face for Nottingham’s Medieval Man is the latest development in a mystery that began in 1962 when workmen dug up bones in Cranbrook Street.
Elementary, the experts said at the time. They were victims of a cholera outbreak in 1831.
Most of the remains of some 70 people were duly dispatched to Wilford Hill Cemetery … but happily one skeleton was transferred to a cardboard box and spent the next few decades in storage at Wollaton.
