| puesdown inn |
| One more than one occasion the figure of a man `in dark clothes` seated on a horse has been silently riding away from the driveway of this old coaching inn, claimed to date from the thirteenth century. More often are heard inexplicable footsteps and weird scuffling noises in one of the rooms over the main doorway. Both phenomena are thought to be connected with the story of a highwayman who, having been shot, returned here for sanctuary, but his wounds proved fatal and he died during the night. |
