Yes, it is the children who invariably 'see' the White Lady and,
separately,
the monk. They tug their mothers' skirt and say: "What is that monk
doing
over there, Mummy". Of course, the mothers see nothing and say:
"Don't be
silly ,darling, there is nothing there".
The knight on a black charger is different. He has been 'seen' at
various
times between the Chapel and the Castle by adults i.e. by adults who
are not
given to romanticising; who do not know of the story; who can
scarcely believe
their senses; and who are somewhat hesitant in talking about their
experience
for fear of being ridiculed.
I have been aware of 'presences' on numerous occasions (but nothing
visual) both
in the Castle and at the Chapel - mainly in the lower crypt.
