Rufford Old Hall is today a National Trust property and is designated as a Grade I listed building by English Heritage, whilst the cottage, coach house and stables in the grounds are designated as Grade II. In terms of appointments, the Hall is beautifully finished with unique accessories including a wooden screen carved from bog oak. This striking, free-standing piece is actually the only known surviving example of its kind from the early part of the 16 th century. A painting of Thomas Hesketh, the Second MP for Preston, hangs over the staircase. It also boasts an impressive collection of arms, armour and 17th-century oak furniture which was donated to the National Trust by Thomas Fermor-Hesketh, 1st Baron Hesketh.

The gates were shut at 36 but you can pass round to the left - some one has chalked 'Bridleway' on the pillar.Of course, this magnificent building is also reported to be haunted, It has been investigated several times and has featured on several different paranormal television shows as well.

When we arrived, a thunderstorm was brewing, but it was not raining as yet! I approached the main well, while there are a number of well documented cases of phenomena at the Hall i have it on exceptionally good authority from a former workmate who has worked on TV productions there that the guides are not above putting lavender pot pourri around as the tours arrive and while i have personally experienced some odd events there i would say that for genuine hauntings Hoghton Tower is hard to beatthis in time led to a nominal readjustment, the representatives of the three co-heirs being said to hold fivesixths of the manor. There were other changes. The It is said that the recipe is a secret, but this is hard to accept because each housewife seems to have her own recipe. From 1794 the house was owned by the Farrington family for some hundred years before being bought by the Longton family. In 1945, the house was rented by the Howarths before they bought the property in 1960.In the 1970's guided tours were available highlighting Priest holes and paranormal activity at the hall . After Mr Howarth died the house stood empty and was badly vandalised, until Sandra and John Coppleston-Bruce bought the house in 1986 and restored it. The property was then bought by the Kirkhams in February 1995. [3]

William Drury claimed 4½ acres in Whittingham against Master Robert de Singleton in 1295; De Banco R. 110, m. 73; I stopped at chingle hall in 1989. It was the most terrifying experience i have ever encontered. I was desperately uneasy throughout the entire experience. We stopped there for charity and nothing worked - watches, cameras, walkmans, well anything with a battery. we also experienced problems with doors being held shut and then opening without anyone being there and also footseps coming down the stairs but no shadows on the white walls of the staircase. I have never summed up the courage to revisit.wow looks creepy but i would go in there becasue i like to explore haunted places but i get scared when i get paranoid about it

The history, stunning architecture and grounds are what draws many, but there are those amongst us who cannot resist the allure of a ghost story or two. When a building has a ghastly past such as the one seen by Salmesbury Hall, one of murder, executions and suicide, it is no wonder the trust has seen fit to host ghost tours year-round. When visiting with long hair, watch out for the resident ladies’ man who likes to stroke it whenever he can. You won’t see him of course, but the sensation will be unmistakeable. He is said to have killed himself after his high living plunged him into debt but he clearly isn’t ready to give up his lifestyle just yet! Also see if you can spot the perennial blood stain that was created when a Catholic priest was executed by soldiers during the Reformation; it is said to reappear time after time.
