My father used to own the mill at Hardwick on the River Windrush. A close friend, who had been my first nanny, was staying one night in the little spare room, when she was wakened by what she described as a presence -- a little girl begging her to come to the mill race as something terrible had happened. Being a timid soul she remained beneath the covers. This is my only experience of a ghostly happening.
