Kingsthorpe Man
It’s been 13 years since an unknown man was found at the Grosvenor Centre, but we still believe we can find the answers that may lead us to his identity.
Living Depiction by Hew Morrison©
An unidentified man, estimated to be between the ages of 60 and 65, was discovered in a collapsed state at The Grosvenor Shopping Centre in Northampton at 3:00 pm on November 19, 2010. Unfortunately, he passed away in the hospital without anyone being able to establish his identity.
He had greying hair that was receding, and a full beard. He was dressed in well-worn, dark jeans, a padded checkered shirt, a dark jacket, a red woolen hat, and black shoes. He was notably missing most of his teeth, except for one at the back, and had a mole above the corner of his right eye as well as another mole on his right cheek.
In his possession were a pair of keys (including one Yale key), a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, and a pack of Pall Mall cigarettes. There is a suggestion that his name might have been 'Terrance,' and there is some belief that he resided behind The Cock Hotel in Kingsthorpe.
