A 10-strong team of ghost-busting experts has detected what they believe is paranormal activity at Plymouth's naval dockyard.
The analysts spent two nights examining psychic activity in the dock's Hangman's Cell.

The Navy allowed the team in after numerous reports of strange sightings around Devonport Naval Base.

These include reports of a girl's ghost seen playing in the Master Ropemaker's House and a bearded sailor.

Since World War II, The Master Ropemaker's House has built a reputation as one of Plymouth's most haunted houses.

The Hangman's Cell, where 141 French prisoners-of-war were said to have been executed, contains what is believed to be the only remaining working gallows in Britain.

One of the team, Barbara Jones, from Abercynon, South Wales, said they finished their vigil at 0500 BST on Sunday.
