THE OLD COWES GHOST TRAIL

The Isle of Wight is reputedly the most haunted place in Britain. This small island is home to a gallery of ghosts, spooks and spirits, which pop up in the most unlikely places.

Using this FREE booklet and map you can take a self-guided walk around the streets and alleyways to discover the darker side of Old Cowes.

The entire walk should take you aproximately an hour, but if you are feeling less energetic or have walking difficulties, or if time is limited, you can miss out the visit to Northwood Park (stories 12 - 14) and return to your starting point via Watchhouse Lane.

This guide is produced by Cowes Town Council, in conjunction with local paranormal researcher and writer Gay Baldwin, and is based on extracts from her popular Isle of Wight Ghost Books.
