A phantom is said to haunt the cellars; the pub used to brew beer and a worker was killed when he fell into a boiling vat; another version is that a tramp, who had been found sleeping rough on the premises was thrown into a brewing vat. During alteration work bricks were removed and stacked neatly to reveal an archway while the builders were away. In addition, people have been kicked down the stairs.

Update 30/8/21: Ksenia replied to my Facebook query: "I am one of the landladies here and live at the pub since 2016 … I personally have never experienced anything."
