Hook
Hampshire, England
Hook is a large village and civil
parish within the Hart district
of
northern
Hampshire,
England. It is situated 6 miles
east of Basingstoke and 36
miles
northeast
of
Southampton.
It can be reached on the A30 national route, just
north of Junction 5 of the M3 motorway. Until the
18th century Hook consisted of a few scattered
farms, but small hamlets appearer when inns sprung
up to serve travellers, as Hook was located on the
main London to Exeter stagecoach route.

The Old White Hart
Barrells, Gravel and Figures
The White Hart public house is
reputedly haunted although Coxe
does not give any details. However, other enquiries reveal that the
sound of beer barrels being rolled
have been reported, along with footsteps following staff, and the sounds of rustling gravel
have been heard in some bedrooms during the
night. Staff have witnessed ‘strange illuminated
figures walking around outside at night’.
