Berry Pomeroy Castle

Two brothers leapt off from the walls, The castle under siege one night; An evil place, it boasts two ghosts, The ladies dressed in blue and white: A sister slowly starved to death, Her pretty looks her only crime; Abusive father killed his girl, And then her children, too, in time.
