Crime in the time of Jane Austen – walking tour – Departs 10am (duration 2 hours)

Jane had first-hand experience of the way the law dealt with those accused of committing a crime when her aunt Jane Leigh Perrot was arrested and accused of shoplifting.  Punishments for criminal activity were harsh and often a ‘street spectacle’.  With Bath Parade Guides hear Jane’s view on the subject.
