Mercy

This is the true life-story of Mercy Newton, arrested in 1848 for a crime that shook Bridgnorth, and the whole of Great Britain. But did she do it?

"A Newton takes their own life, or that of another."

So says the curse of the Newtons.

As the river rises and rain lashes down, The Watering is filled with smoke. In the early hours, a charred corpse is found in the brew house. Mercy Newton is arrested and sent to Shrewsbury assizes.

But is she guilty?

Pieced together from historical records, the life of the nationally notorious Mercy Newton is presented for the first time. Lost to history, this real-life story of a family curse, a jealous daughter and a suspected murder has been forgotten for over 100 years.

Until now.
