Ashleigh Barton

Ashleigh Barton

Ashleigh Barton is an early 16th century farmhouse with its own family ghost. The apparition is said to glide through the upper rooms as a warning of a forthcoming death of a member of the family. However, the author Coxe does not provide a description of the ghost or any clues as to its identity in 'Haunted Britain'. It is believed that this building is NOT open to the public.

 

For further information, please read Haunted Britain by Antony D. Hippisley Coxe.
