Phantom pharmacist returns to scene of his error

摘要

Autumn is upon us with falling leaves, misty mornings and gloomy evenings. Despite the lush abundance of harvest time, for many people this is a season for melancholic reflection and also a time for telling tales of ghostly goings-on. This story is set in Hereford where many of the old timber-framed city centre buildings have either been cleared away for new shopping developments or, where the timber frames do remain, have been clad with modern materials and familiar corporate facias. Among the exceptions is a small segment of an ancient shop that peeps out from above the facia of an otherwise modern building near the pedestrianised area known as High Town.
