A brief note about the area
A ghostly carriage and horses The clip clop of ghostly hooves |
|
Fulmer is a village which lies on the road south of Gerrards Cross. A picturesque village with the church, village hall and Black Horse Inn all clustered around a bend in the road. In the 2001 Census the population of the Fulmer parish was 501.
Fulmer is haunted by a ghostly carriage and horses. The apparition appears on Framewood Road to the south of the village near a river ford then travels through Fulmer along Windmill Road. The carriage then leaves the village along Fulmer Road heading towards Gerrards Cross. This is the story as we found it but there is a problem, the ford is no where near Framewood Road. In fact the nearest point on Framewood Road lies just over half a kilometre to the southwest of the centre of Fulmer whilst the ford lies just over one kilometre away from Fulmer to the east, a separation of nearly one and a half kilometres. The ford on Hawkswood Lane is the only one in the area and has been for over one hundred years.
