The
Little Face at The Window
IF you are ever in
Queens Gardens, Palmyra Square, make a point of looking up at the Springfield
Street Post Office top floor window on the right. A window which over seven
decades ago caused a lot of interest in Warrington. It all started when
a lady happened to look up and see what appeared to be either a little
old woman or a child - waving to her. She reported the incident to the
manager who after investigation told the lady that the room was empty and
was only used for storage.
But the
lady insisted she had seen a person in that room. The year was 1920.
The face at the
window was seen on many occasions after this but the most interesting report
was when at least 20 people saw the face on Walking Day morning 1929. A
contingent of walkers from Friars Green Sunday School making their way
to Bank Park looked up and saw what they thought was an old woman. The
vicar said it was a little girl. Again the incident was investigated but
the management said it was impossible as the department was locked.
Whether it was
an old woman or a little girl, this is certainly one Warrington mystery
without any clue as to who she was, but there must surely be an explanation
somewhere?
Another Warrington
mystery
For the ghost
busters to unhide
Was it the face
of a woman?
Or was it the
face of a child.?
Have you seen
it.?
