NAN TUCKS LANE SHE HAUNTS THE VILLAGE AND FIELDS

The Ghost of Nan Tucks Lane
The story goes as follows: Nan Tucks Lane is haunted by the ghost of Mrs Nan Tuck whose body disappeared after she was killed by the village mob who got it into their heads that she was as a witch who had something to do with the death of her husband. It happened only about 200 years ago, in about 1810 AD.

Her husband had died and the rumour was that she had poisoned him. She ran off, first into the fields for a few days before seeking sanctuary in a church. The local mob caught up with her, chased, tormented and murdered her, telling others that she was a witch who had been simply chased and had disappeared into the forest.

She was not to be seen again alive but now as a ghost, haunting the villagers and for ever and a day, reminding them in perpetuity of their awful treatment of her. So much for mass hysteria and mob rule.
