- Here's my 3rd video. This time I'm taking a look at myths and ghosts around Kinver. I'm not 100% happy with the quality of this one, there are a few issues, but at the end of the day it is just an amateur video!
There's one correction: Outside the Whittington I say that I think that the apparition could have been a parliamentarian soldier - I meant to say a Royalist soldier (In my opinion one could be mistaken for a Highwaymay in the middle of the night when you are swerving to avoid him in the road!) So apologies for that. It may have been the ladder falling of the passing van at 16:40 that threw me!
Thank you to Sarah for assisting with the research. We have quite a bit more about William Howe, a little more on some of the other subjects, but it was a bit too much to include it all in the video.

I love these stories and seeing these locations, it's like I'm there with you walking along and the area so beautiful, thank you so much very enjoyable watching. 😃
Thank you for watching and commenting. Thought this one would be of interest to you.😀
Great video mate, well presented 🙌🙌
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you for watching.
Further info: at the time I published this I knew I had this info somewhere but couldn't find it. Typically it has now shown up whilst I was looking for something else! It is simply that the lady who reported sighting the ghost of William Howe in the 1940's was a Miss Whitworth. (Comes up at around 12:15 in the video)
Really enjoyed watching this
Thanks for watching Mandy. Glad you enjoyed it.
If i remember rightly Paul, there was a large painting of William Howe sitting on a fallen tree trunk in an alcove behind the rear bar..
Thanks for the info Nig. I have been going to the Whittington occasionally since the 1980’s and never noticed this. Perhaps I have seen the painting, but not realised who it was. Great info, thanks for commenting it’s much appreciated.
More first class local history Paul, a joy to watch. I frequently traverse Gibbets Lane but generally avoid dusk or dawn! I've never had an eerie experience there, but my brother did have a scary encounter in the lane and didn't hang around (forgive the pun!)
Thanks Andy. Can you elaborate on what happened to your brother?
@@TimestreamII He was with a friend in his car, when it was still possible to drive along Gibbets Lane. It was night-time and there was no one around, they were just sitting having a natter. Then they heard a sound like the metal panel of the car door had been pressed in and released, as if someone heavy had leaned on it. They drove off smartish! Pretty sure they never went back...
Thanks for filling in the details. I must admit I would never have driven down there at night!
Great stuff, really enjoying your “series”, keep it up. If I can make a recommendation, invest in some form of camera steady mechanism. Thanks again 👍
Thanks Michael and thanks for watching. Yes I intend to take my tripod with me in future. This was one of the things that I wasn’t 100% happy with in this video. I appreciate the comments.
I read once that the gibbet was visible from Robbins bedroom window and his widow had to have the window bricked up so she couldn't see it
Hi James, thanks for watching. Yes I read that somewhere too.
How to get entry to gibbet wood?
Hi, Thanks for watching. Gibbet wood is private as far as I know. But you can walk through along Gibbet Lane which is a right of way. That’s how I did it. Hope this helps.
