#1 Charles Walton, a 74-year-old local gardener and hedge cutter, was murdered in 1945. His body was found the same night on Firs Farm, on Meon Hill, Warwickshire. His death remains the oldest unsolved murder in Warwickshire.

#2 Charles Walton, an old man who lived on his own, had been murdered. He had been beaten with his own stick and his neck had been cut open with the cutting hook. The pitchfork had been driven through his neck, pinning him to the ground, and the cutting hook was left embedded in the side of his neck.

#3 The police arrested Alfred Potter, the local farmer, for the murder. He had been drinking with another farmer, and had seen Walton cutting hedges shortly after the murder. It was believed that he had been killed at around 2 p. m.

#4 The murder of Walton was never solved, but it was believed that Potter had killed him. He was never charged, but the local police were suspicious of him. He was a farmer, and he had the strength to overpower Walton and push the pitchfork through him. But he said that he had only touched the murder weapons when he first arrived at the scene.
