    Well very interesting as usual the howling screaming sounds in the background were gruesome haha. We think our lives are nothing to write home about but give or take a hundred years later it’s really interesting and full of intrigue. Thanku for sharing really enjoyed it while I ate my dinner. 🙂

      I hope it wasn't to gruesome to put you off dinner😅 glad you enjoyed it, it is a place i first visited on a school trip and have been to lots of times since but recently realised i knew nothing about it or how much there was so had to remedy that👍

    Countess Kathleen is buried in the annex because there was no more room in the crypt! Stewart Madley who lived on Castle Drive father was one of the Earl of Harringtons estate staff. Stewart who has passed on now played on the estate as a child and the Countess Kathleen would ride side sadle around the estate on her grey. She would invite Stewart up to the Castle for cake and lemonade! She had 2 small dogs she would walk around with and there graves are just by the Italion gardens but I think the Council have removed their headstones!

      Love these little personal snippets from our past, I wondered why she was separated almost like she was buried off the sacred ground, you could see more into that than fits

      @@Traveler13 Countess Kathleen Emily is the great great grandmother of Serena Alleyne Stanhope, the wife of David Armstrong-Jones, Viscount of Linley the nephew of the late Queen Elizabeth. She maried Dudley Henry Eden Standhope, 9th Earl of Harrington on April 26, 1883. He was a great carver of wood. The Countesses children were Lady Kathleen Florence Mary Standhope (January 20, 1884 - June 1971), Charles Joseph Leicester Stanhope, 10th Earl of Harrington (October 9, 1887 - November 16, 1929) and Lieutenant Talbot FitzRoy Eden Stanhope (November 23, 1896 - May 9, 1915) who was killed in the first world war. Theres a memorial in the church for him. She became the dowager when her husband Lord Dudley Henry Eden Standhope died and lived in a house on station road near to the railway line surrounded by trees. After the first hump over the railway on station Road! The new Earl took over the Castle! Its nothing to do with sacred ground. Ive met her Great Great Grandson Viscount Petersham. He caught me sitting down in the Gothic arch after I was chasing scrouts off the estate all day. He is a great bloke. Sorry about spelling, am not well with blood clots! I cant think straight.

    The name of the ghost is Molly. She was a servent who worked all her life at the Castle. Many mediums told me this! If you sit in the Gothic Arch after midnight she would twiggle with you hair and knock the Castle door shutters! I think shes moved on though to the After Life. After 2010 all reports stopped!

      @@Traveler13 I don't know how or why she died! I know all about Anna Jordon though. She lived in Elvaston Village! It was a cattery 15 years ago when I was at the Castle and spookily enough, the owners had the same birth name as Countess Kathleen! I tell you I was so lucky to work there for 6 years with some fantastic Rangers and Wardens and met many researchers and people who knew the Earls and Stewart, who lived on Castle Drive and was there when things kicked off over his years. I had many weird and spooky happenings and coincidences and strange encounters. You would think I was crazy. The spiritual energy was so strong! But now I am severed and lost without it, but that's life. All good things come to an end and life goes on! I've been ill a lot since leaving also. I wish I could have died there really. My life would have been worth it. Guarding the Castle, The Earls and Countesses and all passed ! Also, Lord Byron, the person who shared the Ghost stories with Mary Shelley in Switzerland before she wrote her famous Gothic horror story Frankenstein, was a good friend of the Earl then and spent many a time there! The Hellfire Club was held there also. And your tufa rock ring by the lake points towards a lay line linking the Earls crypt to a portal used to transverse the Afterlife! A researcher from Nottingham told me when he came up to do research!
