Hermitage, Grimsbury Castle c1955 (ref: H335023)
Year: 1948 My uncle aunt and cousins lived here
My uncle and aunt  lived here from roughly 1948 to 1958.  We lived on Oare Common and visited them at the Castle regularly.
In the living room was a large hook and apparently someone in the past was hung from the hook and has haunted the castle ever since. Another aunt lived at the top of the Castle, she was deaf and dumb. I remember lots of adders around the grounds.
