Figures have been seen, footsteps have been heard and gas taps and electrical lights have been interfered with; the ghost is nicknamed George. CAMRA provides a few more details (c.2010); "The pub itself is one of the oldest in Derby, dated 1680 and possibly built on the site of an ancient monastery. Licensee Nicola told of how the pub is apparently haunted by a small boy who perished at the door of the aforementioned monastery after the good Christian monks had refused to give him refuge on a freezing winters night. Nicola's son has seen shadows out of the corner of his eye upstairs in the flat, and Nicola had a hair raising experience of her own some time back. She had come down to get the pub ready for the day, rounded the corner into the bar and came face to face with a dark shadowy figure. She says that she screamed so loud that she must have scared the ghost away, as it's never been back since!"
