Felix Marsh Rimmington led a remarkable life, serving as the community chemist by day and delving into the realms of crime investigation and forensic science by night. His expertise proved invaluable to the police force, assisting in the resolution of perplexing cases ranging from unexplained deaths to poisonings and murders. Notable among his contributions was his pivotal role in the investigation and court proceedings of the infamous 'Humbug Billy' Bradford sweets poisoning of 1858, as well as his involvement in probing a suspected Jack the Ripper murder in Bradford.
Rimmington's dual role as a chemist empowered him to pioneer new treatments and scientific advancements, earning him the prestigious title of Borough Analyst bestowed by the Local Government Board. His dedication also extended to supporting the implementation of the 1875 Sale of Food and Drugs Act, thereby safeguarding numerous lives throughout the 19th century and beyond.

I remember when I was in my teens, many moons ago, looking through the windows of what appeared to be a very posh chemist, never once did I dare go in x

the instruments at 10:27 are the same as the ones we used in chemistry class. You would put the liquid into the glass tubes then as they heat up you can see through the glass as they bubble/change colour etc. So he would have used those to make his own concoctions. Take note 1 has a thermometer in it another has 2 ends to pour in 2 different chemicals to mix over heat and they have a bubble end which is to be held over heat like a bunsen burner. They also have corks in the ends so when heated the pressure the liquid creates can be kept in and not escape. - They are displayed in an original mortar and pestle he would have used to crush up/mix items.

A fascinating look at an iconic Bradfordian and his establishment. It's just occurred to me that the Ivegate address on the Rimmington's paraphernalia actually relates to the entrance around the other side!
