The Goodrich Ghost

Under the leadership of Colonel Birch, Parliamentary forces besieged Goodrich Castle during the time of the Civil War. At this time, the Colonel's daughter, Alice, who had fallen in love with a young Cavalier called Charles Clifford, escaped from her Uncle and joined her Charles within the fortress. When it became clear that the castle was going to have to be surrendered to the Roundheads, the couple attempted to escape through the enemy lines on horseback. In crossing the River Wye however, just below the castle, they were both drowned.

It is said by some that during stormy weather, even to this day the ghostly figures of a man and woman on horseback can be seen trying to force the animal down into the water, and that at other times, cries and screams can be heard coming from the swollen river.
