An Old Etonian who tried to murder his former partner by throwing her down a disused well at his family’s country estate has been jailed for 24 years.

Douglas Clifton Brown, whose ancestors include several MPs and a high sheriff of Norfolk, ferociously attacked Camilla Welby and tried to drag her to the well which he had recently filled with water.

That woman really fought for her life and turned the tables on him.

"He struck Ms Welby repeatedly in the face and threatened “I will put you down the well to kill you, then kill myself” as he dragged her from the vehicle, but she escaped after throttling him with her scarf until he passed out.

She was later described as having been “beaten black and blue” when she arrived at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in King’s Lynn with a broken finger, fractured eye socket and broken nose, having driven herself there in his car"
