A brief note about the area
The ghost of a plane crash victim

General

During the nineteenth century most of the residents of Frogmore worked at the manor of Kings Waldenbury either on the land or in the house and gardens. At that time the hamlet was large enough to justify two public houses.

Current population is 220 though additional modern housing developments will see this rise considerably.

Handley Page

The former factory of the aircraft manufacturer Handley Page can be found in the village of Frogmore. It is on this site that a ghost has been seen haunting the old factory. It is said that the ghost was a member of the crew of a Victor bomber which crashed in 1958 killing two workers, one who was in the paint shop and another who was repairing a roof.
