11: The Itchell Ghost
This article comes from the April 12, 1892, issue of the Brechin Herald.



Watton Abbey (a.k.a. Watton Priory) still stands, but it is a private residence. Sites interested in the structure’s haunted history — such as Mysterious Britain & Ireland and Walking the Wolds— follow the Watton Abbey chapter in John Ingram’s The Haunted Homes and Family Traditions of Great Britain (1884). Ingram, in turn, gets his information from a newspaper series on Yorkshire lore.
