It was then that he realised he wasn't alone in the building.

Tick Fen, Warboys

Deep in the Cambridgeshire countryside, near the village of Warboys, lies the rural location of Tick Fen, where a most unusual and unexplained phenomenon took place in the late 19th century.

The sounds became so loud that they could be heard in a neighbouring home, some 450 metres away.
