The Inn is reputed to be haunted by the spirit of a young girl (who is buried under the floor of the Inn). The Ghost of 17-year-old Juliet Tewsley is said to return to the Inn on the anniversary of her death to look for her lost love. Tewsley had hung herself from a tree outside of the Inn after being rejected by her lover.

Phenomena such as loud banging on bedroom doors, footsteps on the staircase and an apparition rattling chains around the room have been reported.

The ghost of a nun haunts this sixteenth century house in Cambridge. Abbey House was built on the site of Barnwell Priory, which was established in 1112.

Phenomena such as loud banging on bedroom doors, footsteps on the staircase and an apparition rattling chains around the room have been reported. Also seen in the house is a ghostly nun who appears 3 or 4 times a month in the spring. Walking into bedrooms and standing at the end of beds then disappearing into the curtains.
