The 14th Century church is haunted by the a spirit known as the ‘blue lady’.
In 1976 Jenny Nichols photographed the church but was shocked to find that on developing the film, a blue shadowy figure was clearly in view. Locals believed the blue lady to be the ghost of Elizabeth Gilbert, wife of Henry Gilbert who was the Squire of Locko Park.
I think you’ll find you’ve got the wrong st werburghs on the picture, that one is the city centre one located on cheapside and not the one in spondon as mentioned in the story…. Seen the photo myself very spooky!
