If there is then it must pre date the OS maps of the area. I don't know if the old house had it's brurial Ground or not but they may have been some kind of mound where the Oaklea now stands, two points of interest is the sub station if it's still there and the possiblity of the Oaklea being built over running water.

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

i seem to always end up working in places people think are haunted!! the old Apollo cinema in Blackburn and now the Oaklea! worked there since its re-opening and i haven't seen/heard/felt anything ghostly, but saying that i don't believe in anything paranormal one bit

but will keep my eyes peeled!!! :D hahahahah

In the event of Accyjay accepting an offer of a friendly investigation, I take it that you are volunteering your services Mr Timmins, you being a non believer an all would make an interesting contribution to the sitting.

One point, in the interest of security, once you are in someone else’s property there’s no running away in the middle of the night……… :D

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

I'm sure they said it was a ghost from when the property was residential. I wish I could remember the stories but it's so long ago, I'd hate to be incorrect.

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

First I've heard of this, do you still get visits?

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

Yeah Jay?? have you had anything else??

You really should do a Investigation like has been said!! would be great to see what comes of it!

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

A few scared girlies running down Whalley Road at 4 in the morning, but I agree about the investigation. :)

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

LOL well I will volunteer to do the sitting, and I wouldn't be running down Whalley Road scared either lol


Would be better to get a few believers and a few non believers to even things out a bit!:D

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

I’d say no more than six people, all volunteers, all sober. You can then go two groups of three or three groups of two; covering all floors, no one goes anywhere alone that way any sightings are potentially collaborated. Take digital kit, voice records, cameras, video etc and run test objects in secured areas. I’d try and get a medium involved and a history researcher to look over the property and the sites history. A presence may not necessarily come with the current building. Oh and you don’t need a ghost to be scared ****less. Just spend a night with me….:D

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

You know we should set our own ACCY WEB ghost busting team up!!! :D

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

Very interesting, keep us informed of future progress.

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

I have just joined the forum and I am catching up on old articles.
This thread is like a novel with last few pages missing.

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

I have only been on this forum for 18 months and so I haven't seen it before.
AccyJay doesn't come on much now - busy running the pub I suppose.

There is one snippet of info that I can add to this -
In the late 1940s my brother had a TB gland in his neck and went for 'sun ray' treatment at that building which later became the Marlborough Club. It was an early NHS clinic then.

Re: Help! I've got myself a friend!
 

If someone could call in the pub and ask about it, I am interested in the outcome.
Show your spouse this thread if they ask why you are going out.
It would be rude to go in and not have a drink, wouldn't it.
