Albert Dryden was a British man who gained notoriety for his involvement in a high-profile murder case in 1991. Dryden was a former steel-worker who had become embroiled in a long-running dispute with his local council in County Durham over planning permission for a makeshift castle that he had built on his land.
On June 20, 1991, during a live television broadcast by the BBC, Dryden shot and killed a council official named Harry Collinson, who had been involved in the dispute over the castle. Dryden was subsequently arrested and charged with murder.
In 1992, Dryden was convicted of murder and sentenced to life in prison. He later launched several unsuccessful appeals against his conviction. Dryden died in prison in 2008 at the age of 76.
The case of Albert Dryden remains a memorable and tragic example of a long-standing dispute escalating into violence, resulting in the loss of life.
