Spooky St Mary's, Churchyard (Walkern) ?

I received a message from one of my subscribers telling me to visit Walkern Church, It's Haunted she said and when she visited one night with friends she could hear moaning coming from the Churchyard, they were too frightened to enter,
Now as you all know, I don't visit these places at night, I take a look at them during the daylight hours and having read up on the Church and it's history discovered that Jane Wenham was driven from Walkern by an angry mob who believed her to be a witch. She was later tried as such in Hertford. It is said that after her death she returned to haunt the area around the church.
Now you have the chance to join me in a walk around the graveyard .....
