ENGLISH CIVIL WAR GHOSTS

Story written by Dave Holdich

The English Civil War Background

The English civil war, although referred to as a singular war, but was actually in three main stages, or mini conflicts, and ravished great Britain between 1645, and 1651. There were several battles during the conflict, some major, and lots of other minor skirmishes.

However it's the battles such as the ones at Edge Hill and Marsden Moor that I want to look at more closely. The reason being that these battles have been reportedly continuing even after the last man had long since passed away.

I want to now take a moment to look at the details of the battles, and tell the stories behind them, because all good ghost stories have a past of some sort, that should always be looked at first.
