TAMWORTH CASTLE
Location: Tamworth, Birmingham.
Built: 1070 AD
History: Tamworth castle is of Norman motte & bailey design with a shell keep. The present stone structure replaced the first timber tower surrounded by a palisade which was built shortly after the Norman Conquest in 1066.
Ghostly manifestations: The black lady, the white lady. The Black Lady is allegedly the ghost of a nun called Editha who founded her order in the 9th century; her nuns were said to have been expelled from a nearby Convent by Robert de Marmion.
Ghostly anomalies: Spirits have been heard and seen wandering through the 'Haunted bedroom' and the staircase.
My visit: As we were walking around the building we both got a strange sensation in our eyes, mine was burning like mad.
