In the sleepy village of Billinge, in Lancashire England, is the grand Birchley Hall. Erected in 1594, this Elizabethan grade 2 structure was a stronghold for Roman Catholics during times of persecution.

In 1558, the very first year of Queen Elizabeths reign, Christopher Anderton, a very successful local lawyer, purchased Birchley Hall in Lancashire. He refused to sit idly whilst his Catholic faith was being pulled from under the very roots he stood upon.

Subsequently, Anderton set up the Catholic Publishing Press from inside the Hall producing such titles as 'The Liturgy of The Mass'.

During 1618, his younger brother Roger Anderton, had disguised himself as a granary, and built a chapel and presbytery onto the side of the Hall. The 3-storey building included living quarters for priests via concealed passageways. Anderton and his family lived here for many years.

Today the hall is used a Nursing and Care Home and there are many reports of mysterious and unexplained phenomena such full body apparitions, running footsteps, voices crying out and flitting shadow figures roaming the dark corridors at night.

Could it be that the Andertons never truly left. Are their spirits still seeking refuge at this place?

What do you think?
