No major activity is reported, apart from the odd knock.

03.00 am. INVESTIGATION ENDED.

In conclusion, a mixed night. The vast majority of the location didn't yeild much evidence. The most intruiging room has to be the Blacksmiths room. This is where the bulk of the activity happened.
During one of the seances, Richard and Sarah feel that the spirit causing the disturbances in the Blacksmiths room is a very private man possibly in along coat and maybe called Jack.
Overall the night could warrent another investigation in the future.


Verdict : Possibly Haunted. Requires further investigation.
