As a boy, I used to stay at the old caravan park that's probably long gone now, and I'd play at the foot of the old peele tower. I first learned about the White Lady from a book on Creswell legends and even went looking for her one evening. I was about six or seven and got quite a hiding when my parents finally found me.

Happy memories. There’s still two caravan parks, on either side of the tower, Golden Sands and Cresswell Towers. Both lovely places to spend some time if you’re not local. Even if you are! 😀

@@gonzomax9662 Ah, that's good to hear! Looking at the map it must've been Golden Sands we stayed at. Cheers.

@@soapmode nice one! That’s my favourite; my mam and dad used to live abroad but would come back and stay at the sands over Xmas. Had many happy times there myself. Take care and all the best 😊

@@gonzomax9662 I distinctly recall a stream running along the back of the park (the caravan was in one of the far back corners) through the woodland, and if you followed it you'd arrive at the tower. There was a rope swing over the stream too, though this was circa 1983 or so. Looking at the map though the nearest waterway doesn't seem to converge on the peele tower. My memory may be playing tricks.

Must cut the tree down as you could shuffle along the branch and into the peel tower we had a caravan at Cresswell towers in the 70s early 80s
