About this listen

 In this episode, we examine the enduring mystery of the woman found hidden inside a wych elm tree in Hagley Wood during the Second World War. We’ll retrace the discovery made by a group of local boys, the extraordinary police investigation that followed, and the many theories — from witchcraft and espionage to wartime secrecy — that have surrounded the case ever since. Join us as we explore a story that has puzzled the Midlands for more than eighty years. Disclaimer: This case remains unsolved. While theories and lines of enquiry are discussed, no speculation is made, and no blame is placed on any individual. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
