Said to date back to medieval times, this mysterious location hides stories of sacrifices and rock carvings, buried deep beneath the earth of the former Tower Grounds.
One of the region’s most enduring legends is that of the Magazines Witch, believed to haunt the site of a former public house once known as The Black Horse. This chilling tale has been passed down for generations, a warning whispered from one era to the next.
