hi a bit late to the party here but thank you for posting, it has indeed helped me...

my father lived on 71 booth road, almost right on top where of top o th acre farm was located and as kids we used to experience some dramatic ghostly occurrences in his flat so i was doing some research on this place and came across your post.

how did you find it?
