WITH regard to the "spooky face" at Littledean Hal, the white blob is probably an orb – a moving ball of energy that can be seen with the naked eye as well as in photographs. Very often they are witnessed in rooms where there has been a strong historical event, or a celebratory gathering.

Littledean Hall was built on very ancient land so the phenomena could be related to events that happened many years before. Sightings of a "mysterious" nature can be witnessed where the veil between physical and spiritual is thin.

The reason that photographs are grainy is because the phenomena is not subject to what we regard as time.

Going on to the story about Redcliffe House at Drybrook if Abbie Young contacts the local group of British dowsers I am sure they may be able to identify dates and, again, as a dousing tool is a sensitive piece of equipment more information may well be gleaned.
