The Inn

The Inn

The Inn in Freshford, located in Somerset, England, dates back to the 16th century. Originally built as a coaching inn, it served travelers along the old Bath Road for centuries. The building’s thick stone walls and timber-framed structure have largely remained intact since its construction in the 1500s.

Throughout its long history, The Inn has been the site of numerous reported paranormal occurrences. One of the most frequently encountered spirits is said to be that of a former innkeeper from the 18th century. Guests and staff have reported seeing his apparition in the bar area, often described as a man in period clothing who vanishes when approached.

In the upper floors, the ghost of a young woman has been sighted on multiple occasions. According to local legend, she was a maid who worked at the inn in the 19th century and died under mysterious circumstances. Visitors have reported hearing footsteps in empty corridors and feeling a presence in certain bedrooms.

The cellar of The Inn is another hotspot for paranormal activity. Staff members have reported objects moving on their own and sudden temperature drops. Some have claimed to hear whispers and muffled conversations when no one else is present.

During World War II, The Inn served as a makeshift hospital for wounded soldiers. Since then, there have been accounts of phantom sounds associated with this period, including the rattling of medical equipment and pained moans echoing through the building at night.

One particularly notable incident occurred in the 1990s when a guest reported waking up to see a group of spectral figures in old-fashioned attire gathered at the foot of their bed, only to have them fade away moments later.
