There are many stories about appearances of the Black Friar or Monk.

In some he seems to be a portent of doom but in this one he shows a more sympathetic side of his nature.

In the 1930s the wife of a houseowner in Newstead village was due to give birth.

Her husband telephoned the doctor to come to the house as soon as possible.

It was some time before the medic finally appeared and the husband remarked that he was only just in time.

"Where have you been 聳 you聮re so late" he chided.

The doctor replied that he would have been later still if he hadn聮t stopped by a waterfall in the grounds of Newstead Abbey and asked the way of a monk who was standing there.

The black robed figure said nothing but pointed in the right direction.

There had been no monks at the Abbey for hundreds of years.
