Trues Yard Museum – 11th January 2025

True’s Yard is a heritage site and town museum celebrating the fishing community of the North End, which made a significant contribution to Lynn’s economic and social life for 900 years. The local fishing industry remains important today! ​The Museum complex has been enlarged and developed through two HLF funded extensions (1998 & 2010); it has become a premier Lynn tourist attraction and education centre as well as a community venue.

Paranormal History

The Museum is said to have its fair share of ghosts, and staff members have reported several strange things happening.  Doors have said to have been slammed shut, without any explanation.  The upstairs function room is said to be very active, with several mediums reporting ghostly activity. During the pre-visit, a team member said they felt a strange feeling, only to be told by the museum manager that a medium on a previous visit who was standing in the very same spot, reported activity!

The two cottages on the site (which have now been knocked in to one building) are also said to be haunted by the ghosts of previous owners. Several odd things have happened here, with the upstairs double bedroom reported to be very active.

The White Smiths forge and the Smoke House have also reported paranormal activity, so this location promises to be a very interesting evening…
