A legend has it that under a certain gatepost in Dallinghoo lies a hidden treasure. The ghost of the former owner also haunts the site to protect his hoard - even the efforts of twelve clergymen failed to send him on his way!
Attempts to locate the treasure are now fruitless as no-one can remember where the gatepost stood! Another ghost also haunts the area. A widow by the name of Shawe cut her throat and was later seen haunting the lanes around the village. She is always seen without her feet! It could be that her spirit is simply a recording and she's walking on an earlier ground level.

Honestly, I did not know that there are these kinds of stories associated with Dallinghoo, Suffolk. I have never been there, but my family mentioned that they want to reach that place. Now that you mentioned this, I need to tell them this since my younger brother are not fond of ghost stories! If that happens, my mom will think of other location where we can have a peaceful vacation. I don't want to experience such thing that's why it would be better to avoid all these stuff!
