    Hiking

    The friendly traditional pub is located pretty much halfway between Chiswick and Hammersmith. The beer garden is pleasingly large!
    They serve pizza and have a bowling alley, all of which is very nice.
    Next to the ruins by the beer garden, there is a pretty Victorian street sign with "W" instead of W6, meaning it must have been put up before 1917. Nearby is also a Victorian stinkpipe.

    The Hammersmith Ghost
    First seen in 1803, reports quickly piled up of a ghost, all in white, with horns and glowing red eyes, which not only scared residents at night but also physically attacked them.


    Hysteria grew as the first people suffered shock after "ghost encounters" and allegedly even died from it. People no longer dared to go out on the street at night.

    In this situation, an armed vigilante group formed, which patrolled at dusk + dark. Their goal: To kill the ghost.
