Sorry I did not see your post earlier - here are a few scraps that may be interesting..
Norton Church:
1840 - The Parish Clerk of Norton in Derbyshire and his apprentice went to play the organ then standing in the west gallery of the church. The apprentice whose face was turned towards the nave of the church, told the clerk that he could see a woman sitting alone in one of the high cloth-covered pews, and that he believed her to be spectral. Thereupon they both rushed frantically down the steps, which were very tortuous and awkward. The clerk would never afain play the organ in church in the dusk of evening. (SO Addy Traditional Remains)
Haunted Furniture Store:
Ashes of woman are blamed for ghostly goings-on at furniture store
Second-hand furniture dealer Roy Brook is desperate to give back something he acquired during a house clearance – because its haunting his shop.
Weird things have been happening at the Abbey Secondhand Centre, Chesterfield Road, Woodseats, for about nine months, he said.
Sofas and heavy wardrobes left at one side of the ship are often transported to the other side overnight.
Phones are left off the hook, pictures move from one wall to another, tables turn, rugs roll up and sideboards shift. But this week, Roy said somebody walked into the shop who helped him indentify what was causing the freaky fun and games.
He said:”A gipsy lady came into the shop selling lucky charms. I’d never met her before in my life, but she seemed to know me.
“The she started going on about a presence she could feel in the shop and asked if she could go into the cellar.”
Downstairs, the woman started to rummage among the many crates and boxes stacked on the cellar floor.
After a while she came running back upstairs, shouting that she had indentified the source of the problem.
Roy said “She took me to the far corner of the cellar and pointed to a box. I nearly died when I opened it and found there was an urn of ashes inside.”
Roy believes the ashes must have been taken during a house clearance – but he has no idea which one.
“We do so many,” he said “All I know is that the gipsy woman says the urn contains a female spirit who will not rest until she in reunited with her family.”
“I only hope that somebody out there might know who they are so I can get shut of the urn once and for all.” The Star 17th May 1999
**Roy closed his business six months later. A double-glazing window shop has opened in its place, I visited the present occupiers who stated that there has been no paranormal activity since. Was Roy looking to promote his business through this tale? Or when Roy moved did he take the haunted urn with him?
If I remember right, David Clarke's ghost alignment finished at Beauchief Hall - Do you want any ghost stories from there?
