Now housed in our Butterworth Gallery, this exhibition tells the true story behind the Wicked Little Letters film. The falling out of two friends living in Western Road in Littlehampton in the 1920s led to a fascinating and bizarre series of events including libelous letters, false accusations and prison sentences...
