Huddersfield Ben is said to be the father of the Yorkshire Terrier breed. Ben died in 1871 and was displayed in the Tolson Museum until the 1990’s when he disappeared.
Katie Addinall, Lecturer in forensics at the University of Huddersfield, will explore how today’s cutting edge forensic science could have been used to investigate Ben’s disappearance and will give glimpses into the future of this fascinating science. We see forensic science on TV and read about it in books but this is a chance to meet a local scientist in person and hear about her work... Will she crack the case of Huddersfield Ben?
