The Skirrid Mountain Inn is said to be the oldest Public House in Wales. As visited by Most Haunted’s Yvette Fielding and Derek Acorah this historical location is found in the small village of Llanvihangel Crucorney only 5 miles north from the centre of Abergavenny. It is reputed to be the oldest Public House in Wales with a history that can be traced as far back as the Norman Conquest. The Skirrid has been an Inn since 1110 but is most famous for its use as the residence of the notorious Hanging Judge Jeffreys. Hanging Judge Jeffreys hung 180 rebels from a beam beneath the Skirrids Inn own staircase. The actual beam still stands today and still bears the marks from the hangmans rope for all still to see. So as you can Imagine there are many souls that linger here some friendlier than others! The Skirrid Inn is thought to be the most haunted public house in Wales, it has certainly seen its fair share of Paranormal activity ranging from flying glasses in the bar area, sightings of ghostly faces within the darkness and dramatic temperature changes along with chilling disembodied voices all of which have been witnessed by many of the visiting guests here. dusktilldawnevents.co.uk/skirrid-inn-christmas-ghost-hunt-supper-p-695.html
