well laura its in dartmoor. legend has it that about 300 years ago a lowly servant girl got pregnant thanks to a squires son, and she was excommunicated from the village. the day before she was due to be banished she hung herself. the locals didnt want her to be buried with her unborn child on consecrated ground so they buried her on a crossroads in such a way to keep the devil away ,or something like that. anyway, apparantly ever since then fresh flowers appear more or less everyday on the grave and sometimes old coins as well .the fresh flowers appear in the form of whatever flowers are in season,i know because i have seen them ,they are crudley hacked and pulled locally from nearby somewhere. people have no idea where or how they appear ,they have had stakeouts but whenever ppl are distracted they appear ppls cameras go faulty when they are trained on the spot. it is also a very cold spot, even on a hot day it appears freezing on that spot. i believe legend says that locals have to leave flowers and coins for luck but dont quote me. have a look on the website its there somewhere with piccies

I would love to investigate the trasure holt in Essex. Also Hampton Court Palace although I doubt that permission for an investigation would be given.

No we wouldn'r get permission for Hampton Palace - Id like to do the Tower of London but again, not gonna happen.
Treasure Holt is one we do want to do and have written to them.

If you manage to get an investigation going at tilbury fort, you can count me in as I live just five minutes from there, I would also love to do Colchester castle. A few years back I went there and I manged to spend just five minutes in the dungeon, and this was in broad daylight, cant imagine what it would be like at night time when every thing is pitch black. Dover castle is also another place I would like to visit, and Chillingham castle too. I have to admit that I do have a thing about castles, so I would be in my element if you could arrange an investigation at any of these locations.
