Our
researches with some of the local people, believe not so long ago
(100 years) the Manor House was a hive of activity. Parties would
be held and the wine would flow. But oh how the mighty have fallen...
Sir Jack Curtiss owned The Manor House. He was a great sportsman,
rogue, and a lover of horses, and women. Sir Jack, as a huntsman
was a great risk taker. It was upon a wet and cold October evening,
when an accident took his head.
|
| Sir
Jack is now heard in the dead of night, searching for his severed
head inside the Manor House. In fact the locals have given reports
of screams, wails and shouting as he bangs doors in his frantic attempt's
to locate his missing body part. |

The
above ice house has a grim tale....
Its
is located in a large manor house, the tale starts with the master
of the house getting a maid pregnant. It ends with the maid being
found dead in the ice pit frozen. Research into the screams heard
at night from the pit have found that the maid wanted the master
of the house to take her out of the miserable servant life she
held, and make her a lady. But after failing she resorted to blackmailing
him. Until one night he cracked and dragged her by her hair to
the pit, where he forced her in. Only the stifled pleading for
mercy could be heard for a short while....

| The
above picture is of a house on the coast. We have spoken of wreckers
in earlier pages. This house was lived in by a fisherman and his wife.
The wife would light a single candle so her loved one could find his
way home. The light was placed in the window shinning to the sea.
The light went out hundreds of years ago but the building still remains. |

| Doors
have a great fascination. This one door pictured above is at the end
of a long corridor. The passage is dark and damp, it is a scene of
a horrific murder. The murder was so terrible that the blood stains
are still to be found on the wall, l but the most frightening part
is the attacker was disturbed. The victim with their last breath managed
to scratch on the wall the name of her assailant. This can be seen
below, it is over 150 years old but you can still make out the writing
and feel the chill run down your spine... |
