Who put Bella in the wych elm? In 1943 some boys found a skeleton inside of a Harlow tree. The woman has never been identified and the case is still unsolved. Later, graffiti started showing up around town saying “who put Bella in the wych elm?” Was the unidentified woman named Bella? Is it a reference to Bella Donna the drug? What are your theories?
