Facts about Ayscoughfee Hall
Ayscoughfee Hall, now a museum and tourist information centre, has a history dating back to early medieval times. In the past, staff at the Hall have reported feeling a ghostly presence around the rooms and galleries, which used to be home to the late Maurice Johnson and his family.
The legend of the “White Lady”, who walks the floors of the Hall, intrigued David, a ghost sceptic. He says, “My scepticism of the paranormal in general, led my colleges to challenge me to stay the night in one of Spalding's reputedly haunted buildings. Where better than Ayscoughfee Hall on All Hallows Eve when the spirits are said to roam free?" "I'll be bringing along some state of the art ghost hunting equipment that will be placed around the Hall, and of course you can follow my findings on the website.”  David Hamilton at Ayscoughfee Hall Well David kept his word and took up the ghostwatch. Throughout the night, the council’s website at was broadcasting updated information from the Hall including images from web cams, temperature & sound monitoring equipment and David’s journal. last updated: 30/10/07 SEE ALSOYou are in: Lincolnshire > Features > Unexplained Lincolnshire > The Ayscoughfee Ghost watch |
