History and Paranormal Activity
A séance was held on 11 November 1896. At the séance the medium revealed that messages were being received from a nun called Sister Agnes who had been wrongly excommunicated from the Church and buried in unconsecrated ground outside the house.
A year later when drains at the house were being inspected, the body of a woman was found and the bones were certified as being about 400 years old. Were these the bones of Sister Agnes? They were re-buried discreetly by a local gravedigger.
The Lady in White is reported to have made further appearances, but not within living memory.
Further sightings have been reported. There is the Lady in Grey who descends the grand staircase with nowhere to go. And a ghost who was seen trying out a child’s toy tractor during the 1960s.
