Chanctonbury
Apparently at Chanctonbury there is also a druidic
spirit, who is seen walking, with his head lowered, as
though searching for something. It could be that
he is meditating or lost in thought.
There was also an old man seen,
although it is suggested that he might be the same ghost.
He may have been a guardian spirit.
The story is that they dug up a Saxon hoard hard by,
and after that the old man was not seen any more.
There is a sense of something being there.
When I went I could feel it myself,
however I saw nothing. Perhaps the guardian
spirit no longer takes physical form, but is still watchful.
You might feel that you are being followed around.
There used to be moonlit walks at Chanctonbury Ring
as day excursions from London Victoria,
in the good old days.
Whatever happened to them?
On my 9th birthday in 1968 a group held a vigil on
Chanctonbury Rings, ( not to celebrate my birthday, sadly)
and one of the participants allegedly
lost the use of his arms and legs, and fell to the floor screaming.
There are quite a lot of stories like that, from people, who
brave the night there. Is there residue magic from
witch's ceremonies lurking in the ground,
or power from the depths of the earth,
which disrupt human senses?
