Hornsea, a quaint seaside town known for its beautiful seafront, serene Mere, and picturesque parks, has been struck by tragedy. The beloved beachcomber, Sandie Shaw, has been discovered floating in the surf by fellow forager, Rock Turner. With the evidence washed away by the sea, regional detective Willie Solvit is stumped by the lack of motive. But now, YOU have received an anonymous letter with clues detailing suspects with rock-solid alibis. Will you be the one to solve the mystery and uncover the truth?

What is a Treasure Trail?

Before You Set Off

Please Note:

The route directs you past a fine selection of quaint shops and historic buildings. You will also pass several pubs, restaurants and cafes if you need refreshments along the way. Alternatively, there are places suitable for a picnic along the Trail.

This detective mystery Walking Trail is around 2 miles in length and will last about 2 hours. It is suitable for pushchairs but not wheelchairs. Please note, you will need to cross a short section of grassed area in Hall Garth Park. Therefore, suitable footwear will be necessary in bad weather and pushchair users may require assistance to cross any muddy patches.

There is a free car park in Cinema Street, which is very close to the Start point.
