The retirement home in 1904 of the former "Jack the Ripper" case detective, Inspector Frederick George Abberline (1843 - 1929) when it was known as "Estcourt". He died here in 1929, and was buried in an unmarked grave in Bournemouth's Wimborne Road Cemetery. A campaign in recent times for the grave to be recognised culminated in 2007 by the provision of a suitably inscribed granite headstone, commemorating both Frederick and his wife Emma. Image
