I went out to see it and if anyone would like a copy of one of the photos, let me know.

Yeah seems more supernatural after reading that link. Thanks parksie. Definitely not enough remote rugged land to be the home of a bigfoot like creature hehe. Either there or anywhere in Britain.

On the other hand, Britain is positively swarming with ‘ghostly’ activity, or ‘alleged’ ghostly activity.

The above encounter with the chimp like animal above could have been an escapee animal, could have been the ghostly Monkey-man, but either way it would be hard to prove. With ghosts, impossible to prove.

If some believe that this is a ghost of a hominoid, or a more traditional quadraped ape, then fossils of the region need to be carefully researched. Heidelbergs once lived in Britain (they were around 6 feet tall to taller, lived before Neanderthals, unknown as to whether they were hairy or not, though most likely not, some populations saw individuals of 6 feet for or above), but I can’t recall if monkey or nonhuman ape fossils have been found there.

Another theory might hold that this is the ghost of a exotic primate brought to the region centuries ago and died, haunting the place ever since. Don’t really believe in ghosts myself, but it’s something for paranormal researchers to consider.

Here’s the first.

Have heard about sightings and strange noises in a place called cannock chase (large wooded nature reserve) only a few miles from stowe-by-chartley so maybe there could be a link there. Would be interested to hear more on this.

An escapee??
