Residents have told of the ghost of a young woman who haunts a Cornwall village with flowers mysteriously appearing on her gravestone each year on the anniversary of her death.
Historian Barry West has investigated the case of Betsey, who died aged 19, in 1795. Yet for generations, flowers have appeared on a slate gravestone just by the entrance to the lychgate at the church of St Clement near Truro.
He said: "I have often wondered about the truth that sits behind what has become something that always draws me to visit at this time of year. There are different stories about this young woman who sadly died so young."
