13] The Dering Arms

Standing at the approach to the village station, these premises were originally a hunting lodge. The owners share their home with the ghost of an old lady who seats herself at a table by the window through which she seemingly views the world outside. So clearly has she appeared that she could quite easily have been mistaken for a flesh and blood customer but for the peculiar bonnet and old-fashioned dress she wore - plus the fact that she vanished on the spot immediately her presence was commented on.

Although this lady has appeared enough times to be accepted as part of the furniture she has never been included in Pluckley's inventory of established ghosts.
