Title: Loxley Woods
Post by: glastonburytorist on Monday 25 August 14 13:06 BST (UK)

Hi!

Trying to find an old article or any type of information that happened somewhere in between 1880-1909 (I know sorry for long timespan) in Loxley Woods. There was a robbery of a mailcoatch, my great-grandfather, Arthur Dean Mullins was the driver. I've heard the story went quite big but I searched the British Newspaper archives with no luck. Would anyone know what local newspaper it would have been covered in?
