Best Western Plus Angel HotelMarket Place, Chippenham, Wiltshire SN15 3HD The Weird Wiltshire website says that many travellers have passed through the hotel over years and that "Since at least 1613, The Angel, once known as The Bull, has been an important grade II* listed coaching inn on the London to Bristol route ... Apparently, bloodstains were still visible, until the 1950s, on the floor of a bedroom where a duel had taken place. A ghost of a servant girl who died of a fever in the late 1800s makes her presence known on the top floor. Another ghost is said to be a man's valet who had collapsed and died in the inn. He carries a jacket in his arms. Visitors and staff have reported strange noises and footsteps throughout the inn." Link: Weird Wiltshire |
