The Vanishing Hitch-hiker

A phantom hitch-hiker has been reported on the road between the ‘Fiddler’s Elbow’ and the ‘Queen’s Pub’, with the incident occurring sometime in the 1930’s. Also, a cyclist has reported being given “quite a good push” whilst riding in the location. Could this be the same ghost?
