Not for those among us easily scared more for the Miss Marpleās or the Sherlock Holmes, those who like a good mystery and can solve one. Who was the grey lady?
The photograph was taken by Harry Dack in 1967 of his grandson Neil, with his pet Jack Russell ‘Kelly’; in the back yard of his house, but when developed the mysterious lady appeared! The identity of the lady has never been discovered.

I think the ‘ghost’lady is Phoebe Dack, Neil’s gran. They lived at 58 Coronation Street and we lived next door but one at 62. With camera’s like they were then sometimes the negative’s didn’t always move to the next frame and this could possibly be the cause of the ‘ghost’.
Food for thought!
