I thought I would end the year with a bit of mystery.
Racton Ruins is a folly in West Sussex UK built by the Earl of Halifax in 1772. Although it was probably built as a summer house, or possibly a viewpoint from where the Earl could see his merchant ships coming in to dock from across the Solent, the structure is reputed to be used (and possibly is still) by so called devil worshipers – the structure is built along the lines of triangular shape and this can be clearly seen from a bird’s eye view. The structure is reported to be haunted – there have been many reports of bricks flying from above, a women seen walking around the building, a ghostly face appearing at the top floor windows, people being grabbed and pushed and, the strangest of all, a tractor appearing in the fields, coming right up to the onlooker and then disappearing!
Wish All EPZ members and the team a very happy 2012.

A raven, an all-seeing eye and a ruined folly...all the making of a good mystery, Sue.
I guess this place has no connection with the expression "gone to rack and ruin"?
All the best for 2012, Sue.
