Wingfield Manor, Chesterfield

I visited Wingfield Manor a few years ago, that was the time when you could wander around alone, this is where I purchased Simon Marsden book, 'A spectred Isle'. Now you can only go in on a pre-booked tour. Here is Simon Marsden's Wingfield Manor entry

There is a pond on the walk up and my good friend Toby spotted a guy slumped over his fishing rod at the pond there, but we were sure if he wasn't asleep that he was dead; we dared one another to have a look, fortunately he wasn't dead it was a dummy :D

People have reported that they have felt like they are being followed by a spectral presence.
