The White Hart

A mischievous spook nicknamed Aloysius inhabits the upstairs part of this pub, and is known to throw items around. The outline of a figure has been seen on the pub's CCTV and other phenomena reported, such as lights been found turned on in rarely used rooms - the new landlord calls this spook "George"!
Further details were added by a newspaper in late 2023: apparently George was one of two brothers who were embroiled in a dispute over land, but this poor chap came off badly and was killed. The article states that, "His body is thought to have been hidden in the cellar of the pub, following the brutal murder, which is accessed via a trap door behind the bar. Since then, landlords and customers alike have reported experiencing a rather otherworldly presence of George, in various shapes and forms." The article mentions an article from 2017 saying that, "For decades, landlords have left a vase of flowers on the bar, as it is believed this helps calm George down and fends off any unwanted supernatural activity. Back in 2017, the pub's landlord at the time, Phillip Nash, recalled witnessing 'quite a few spooky incidents' as well as hearing tales from the past involving George. Nash said that, 'On several occasions bottles of alcohol that were firmly in place on the shelf behind us have fallen off for no reason whatsoever, which always gives us quite a fright. And an old landlord once came in and told me how a barrel of Fosters kept disconnecting itself in the cellar despite the fact he was making it tighter and tighter each time, and there was nobody down there ... I’ve also seen the figure of an old man wearing a tweed suit and red V-neck jumper sitting by the women’s toilets in my peripheral vision, but there was nobody there. And no, I hadn't been drinking.'
