#279 - The Grey Man - Part One (Chiswick, London, England)

This is Part One of Two of The Grey Man.


Across the morning of Tuesday 11th of November 1941, from 8:50am to 10:20am, an armed man dressed in grey went on a killing spree across Chiswick, Hammersmith and Acton armed with two shotguns. It seemed like he was picking off random people, but having spent months rehearsing and surveilling his targets, his mission had a purpose. Of so he thought.


  • 8:50am - Leslie Ernest Ludford & Mrs Violet Mary Pinder outside of 1-3 Hadley Gardens, West London,
  • 8:55am - Emma Jane Crisp & Annie New at 1 St Mary’s Grove in Chiswick, West London,
  • 9:05am - Mrs Kathleen Irene Guyver of 38 Westcroft Square, shot in Hamlet Gardens, West London,
  • 9:15am - Mrs Harriett Fell of 4 Bollo Lane in Acton, West London, shot twice in the arm
  • 9:25am - ACW/1 Winifred Allenby, 24 Hartington Road, shot in Grove Park Road, West London,
  • 9:49am - Miss Agnes Grace Hunt, shot in Rathger Avenue in Ealing, West London,
  • 10:10am - Edith Amelia Barringer shot at 5 Brunton Way in West Ealing / Perivale, West London,
  • Culprits: 1 (Philip Joseph Ward)
  • Death by shooting with a shotgun, a killing spree across West London
