These are ghost ridden lands. The quiet places. Here your grandfather's grandfather still wanders that well trod path, on that familiar journey, as he follows the river home πŸ’š

Easthope is a beautiful place, albeit a little small. Perched upon the slopes of Wenlock edge, the whole area feels as if it’s a secret place, (after all, local belief stipulates that Wenlock Edge belongs to the fae) Its also home to one of my Favourite ghost stories 'The Burley Fighting Monks' of Easthope.

It has been said that a number of spirits are attached to the Ironbridge- including a hooded monk, a loving victorian couple who walk arm in arm and pause for kisses- and two playful little girls who skip merrily across the bridge. πŸ’š

The Wrekin is integral to Shropshire, and its not without ghosts. The many spirits that haunt the hill include a broad gentleman who greets you as a friend, numerous playful children, black dogs and strange albino fox with glowing red eyes that screams before disappearing...

'Woe unto thee, hard hearted man,
The Lord has hardened thy heart to thine own destruction.
Rejoice not in thy riches nor monuments of pride,
For neither thou or thine own children's children
Shall inhabit these halls, They shall be given desolation and vipers'

This was the curse bestowed on Morton Corbet Castle and Sir Vincent Corbet after he betrayed his friend. The unfortunate souls still wanders the grounds, to ensure the curse lives on.
