Mischievous Spirit of Lola Taplin

The Fleece Inn Inn, Bretforton

The Fleece Inn in Bretforton is home to a rather feisty spirit, that of Lola Taplin, the former landlady. Lola's presence is still keenly felt in the bar area where she's known to throw food and other objects around, causing quite a commotion. It's said that she had a bit of a short temper in life, and it seems that hasn't mellowed out much in death. One poor soul reported feeling a deep sense of sadness while in the bar, and even felt a poke in the side, as if Lola was trying to get her attention. It's a strange and unsettling experience, to say the least.
