A trail of clues awaits in

Ulverston

After retiring from the film business in the 1950s, Stan Laurel sent the Mayor of Ulverston a letter and map alluding to the whereabouts of an unreleased Laurel & Hardy film. Called Lonesome Pine, he wished to donate it to the town. Always the clown, Stan hid the film in a secret location whilst visiting his place of birth in 1947 with his partner in crime, Oliver Hardy.

But the Mayor's letter and map, thought to have been lost over time, have just recently resurfaced during renovation work being done at Coronation Hall. Now the town's residents are looking for some top treasure hunters (who have a sense of humour!) to help track down this legendary missing masterpiece. Are YOU up for the challenge, explorers?
