Bolton Abbey ruinsBolton Abbey is an 12th century ruin which Stands among soft green meadows bordered by woods and the River Wharfe with its delightful waterfalls.
The nave of this priory was repaired and lengthened in 1864 to form the local parish church but it is the old grounds of the abbey and the area near the current rectory which is haunted by a ghostly monk.
In 1975 , an Reverend F.G. Griffiths confirmed that the apparition of an Augustinian monk in a brown hassock has been seen walking through the wall of the rectory towards the ruined abbey. The figure of the monk has also been witnessed on a number of occasions near the rectory by visitors to the ruins.
Its also reported that King George V was a witnesses to the Marquis of Hartington’s account of seeing the ghost of a monk in the rectory in 1912. Another ghost to the area is that of an black-robed specter that haunts the church accompanied by a strong smell of incense and is meant to usually appear in July during the daytime.
