A documentary about the life and times of Frederick Rolfe the self-crowned King of the Norfolk Poachers.
His book 'I Walked by Night' is a much loved classic of rural life, first published in 1935. But what is the reality behind Frederick Rolfe's memoirs?
Charlotte Paton suspected that her cottage had been Fred's home when he became a 'poacher turned gamekeeper'.
This evocative film by Peter Hodges follows Charlotte Paton's search for the truth.
The film also includes demonstrations of Victorian Poaching techniques.
