Ghost of a German Pilot
New Addington is reportedly haunted by
the ghost a German pilot shot down
during the Second World War. He
bailed out of his aeroplane during an air
battle, but was badly injured. Some
locals wanted to kill him, others
disagreed and looked after him until the
wardens arrived. He later died in
hospital. The story is that a man
dropped his wallet and went back to
look for it in Queen Elizabeth’s Drive. It
was handed to him by a man with a
foreign accent, wearing a flying jacket.
The man then disappeared. The
witness recognized the pilot from a
photograph his wife found.
A group of workmen at the old airport
site saw a ghostly biker when they were
building the Roundshaw Estate. One
version has the biker wearing the
uniform of a Battle of Britain airman.
The airport is also haunted by the ghost
of a Dutch pilot who took off and
crashed shortly afterwards. The ghost
of the Dutch pilot is said to have saved
the life of a British pilot whom he
warned of the fog. The British pilot was
found in shock and the flight had to be
cancelled. The fog soon descended, as
predicted.
The Roundshaw Estate is also said to
be haunted by the ghosts of three nuns
who were burned to death in a plane
crash with nine others in January 1947.
They walk the streets of the estate,
which was built on the site of the old
runway. The aircraft had got caught up
in a snowstorm and burst into flames on
impact. It is said that one of the nuns
had a vague premonition.
