The Pirate Ghost of New Brighton

 



At the Bottom of Magazine Lane in New Brighton once stood the New Brighton College which is now part of Vale Park. Visitors to the area in the early 20th Century often reported seeing a man dressed in Privateer style clothing with Buckled Boots and a Tricorn hat. He could be heard with a sound of coins jingling as he walked the bottom path  before Vanishing through the Shelter Building. This served as a warning to locals, if you heard the Jingles, run for your life.
