“B. Richmond wrote of the haunting associated with the house and in 1961 her son, Sir Arthur Richmond, CBE, described the experiences in his book Twenty-six Years, 1879-1905. The figure of a tall lady dressed in grey was seen not only during the hours of darkness but also during daylight. The sound of someone weeping sorrowfully was heard night after night and the sounds of some thick material being sewn. There was a story that at one time a gang of coiners occupied the house after being caught ...and serving their sentence on ‘information received’. They were convinced that the informant was a woman and they sought her out, lured her to Beavor Lodge and forced her to sew a sack in which she was drowned in the Thames. Among the incidents recorded by Sir Arthur in his memoirs there is the testimony of a parlour maid who fainted and dropped a tray in the hall because, she said, she had met a strange lady dressed in grey who disappeared. There was the appearance of a figure similar to Sir Arthur’s mother, and another figure that resembled his sister when she was a young girl.MoreLessRead More Read Less
