NORTH WILFORD POWER STATION
Wilford Road
Nottingham
Nottinghamshire
Considering the fact that some parapsychologists think that ghosts are a form of electricity it is not really surprising that electric generating plants maybe associated with phantoms. There is one station, at Roundshaw in Croydon, in which the sounds of children` voices have been heard, and also this building in Nottingham where a figure of a man has been seen. Described by Sam Pykett who witnessed the apparition in November, 1967, it appears as `a little fellow wearing a check shirt, a blue bib overall and a cap. I also remember that he had widest eyes and rather thick lips`. Sam continues, `I was on the 10 p.m. shift and had just shut down the pumps in the Screen Room, where the water from the river is filtered and pumped through to cool the turbines, when I thought I heard something. I couldn't see anything so I went on clearing up the leaves away from the screens when suddenly, standing by the door there was a figure. It smiled turned and went through the closed door. It was all over in about five seconds. Just then I realised how cold I had become. It was icy. So factual was the incident that Sam entered it in the daily report sheet and told the foreman, Senior members of the maintenance team interviewed him, feeling perhaps that he was overwrought. He convinced the officials but was surprised when one of them, having heard the description of the apparition again said `That's old George. He used to work here but he's been dead for some years`. He had worked at the power station for some 25 years and was doing the same job that Sam was carrying out.
This was not the only appearance of `Old George`, however, for he was seen by another of the team on afternoon shift in the Turbine Room, But this time the apparition, in an overall, walked behind a pillar and vanished. Most recently other workers have commented on occasionally seeing the figures of 'a little chap wearing a check shirt'in the same area but, 'it or rather he doesn't worry us, they say as he doesn't stay around long enough'.
