Green Street rings a bell and I dont know why. I knew it was near us but I cant remember why it means something else as well, if that makes sense! Going to have to get hold of mum. |

Yes, it was definitely Green Street, which is off the Hertford Road and runs parallel with Carterhatch. |

Green Street was just down the road from me. I lived just off of Caterhatch Lane. See what you mean about the price difference. |

sue, I believe that Harper was the ficticious name invented for the book 'This House is Haunted', which is the book i'm struggling to find. Andy |

Sue, the real name of the family was kept a closely guarded secret from the public but hey, Enfield isnt that big a place. |

Ok Andrew, That put the wind up me! I was living on council estate in Enfield and I was about the same age as that young girl. I don't actually remember anything on our estate, it was a large estate with a lot of kids but word went round fast if anything happened. I will ask mum later, this has got me curious now. Sue |

Anybody remember the Enfield Poltergeist? It was publicised in the major press pictures and all, and lasted longer than any other poltergeist activity recorded. |
