A WARTIME Chronicle mystery has been solved Cluedo-style.

It was Mrs Alexander with a lead pipe in the school room.

Margery Alexander, of Handbridge, recognised last week's photograph of possible evacuees enjoying a party.

"I think it's definitely Christ Church School in Gloucester Street. I was a pupil there from 1945 onwards, from the age of five to 11, and I recognised the pipes up the wall and the chairs."

Although Christ Church is no longer a school, Margery still regularly attends as a member of Chester Little Theatre which rehearses and performs there.

The photographs of Christ Church school in the 1950s are from Chester History and Heritage Centre.
