Shopping spectres in shoreham by sea

There once was a place called St Wilfred's, the old Hospice in Ham Road. This was demolished to make way for a modern shopping precinct, now home to the Co-op, Famous Moe's Pizza, a cafe and newsagents. The ghosts of young schoolgirls wearing grey dresses with white pinafores have been seen in the area, as has a man in a Victorian-style suit with a black top hat. The sound of ghostly piano music has also been heard, despite the fact that there are no pianos in the buildings.

Another legend concerning this hospice/ shopping area is that there was a fire in the Building and boys got trapped inside and a young Girl with a white dress can be seen in the building and things fall off the isles for no reason.

Around the same time as the tragedy in the hospice, before the Holmbush centre was built, there was a farm on the land, where Tesco and marks and Spencer's is now situated. Backing onto what is now the A27, where M&S is, was the farmyard barn. One afternoon, returning from school, a young girl dressed in grey, was in the barn seeing to the animals when the building caught light and burnt her alive. It is not know, but believed to be the terrible act of her father. Staff at marks and Spencer's and the rest of the centre have said to have seen her at night, or early hours of the morning, usually away from bystanders, and leaves notes to let people know that she is still around in spirit.
