Who Fried Fred Friar In Armagh?

Fred Friar has been found murdered in the historic city of Armagh and your help is needed to solve the murder. Although the remains of Fred’s body were found beside the old cannon on the Mall, we believe this was not where the murder was committed. Only by following the clue trail will you discover where the crime was committed and solve the case.
  • The Armagh City Whodunit Hunt is a self-guided, walking murder mystery trail.
  • Along the clue route there is much to discover in this old city, almost unique if only because it has two cathedrals, both splendid pieces of architecture. You’ll see numerous historic buildings in the area around the Church Of Ireland Cathedral, learn about a tragic railway disaster, see the replica of a giant Irish stone cross, and visit the beautiful green Mall area that is flanked on both sides by many old buildings. The route also passes close to the city’s planetarium, which is well worth a visit if time allows.
  • The clue route is approximately 3 miles, or about 5 km, and starts/ends at the old Friary ruins within the Palace Demesne.
  • The Whodunit Hunt booklet is packed with 30 clues as well as several pieces of extra historical information.
  • The recommended time for this murder mystery is about three hours, excluding any stops for refreshment.
  • Accessibility – some streets are quite hilly, but the only steps are a couple into The Mall.
  • Refreshments – there are restaurants, cafes, coffee shops, and stores along your clue hunt.
