Directions Proceed out of Nantwich on the A51 towards Barbridge Chester Tarporley . Just beyond the Equine centre on the left, the landmark residence will be observed on the left hand side.

Location & Overview The property stands on the North side of Nantwich just off the A51 which is a historic coaching route to Chester. In local legend, Verona circa 1760 s was known for the bogart .
It was said that on dark nights a white figure was seen flitting about in a supernatural way; that in those bygone times, which to the present generation seem almost mythical when the traffic of the country was so largely carried on by the four horse stage, and when the London mail was daily seen passing and re passing along this road from London to Chester on dark winter nights there were sometimes seen spirit like apparitions near this lone dwelling, a phantom would suddenly jump out from the building near the house upon the mail coach, startling the half asleep passengers, and causing the affrighted horses to fly at the top of their speed. When recovering from the vision, the terrified coachman and guard found that their unearthly companion had vanished. For many years the neighbours feared to pass the house after sunset; and if forced to do so, often saw, or fancied they saw, enough to confirm their worst suspicions that the place was haunted! When the writer knew the neighbourhood in early life it was inhabited by an elderly lady to whom it belonged, and who with a small household carried on the business of the dairy. In those days, when the cottagers were not so high larned as at present, there was less disposition to question the authenticity of ghost stories, which were pretty current there about. An old tenant one day, whilst relating his experiences, hinted a shrewd suspicion that these ghosts were not altogether immaterial; for that one winter s morning, many years before, he himself set out with his cart to fetch coal from the distant coal pit, and in passing this same house he saw the veritable Bogart.
Many years ago an aged woman servant lived in a part of the building, whose light slumbers were often disturbed by the noisy horn of the mail guard and the heavy tramp of his steeds, and she conceived a design to revenge herself upon her midnight disturbers. She lay in wait till a fitting opportunity, when suddenly, on the rapid passing of the coach, one dark night, she opened her window, and threw a white sheet upon the horses, with what effect we may easily conceive.
This explanation seemed to satisfy my informants; but like many another curious myth, we may still feel at liberty to doubt and wonder on. The spirit world truly contains many unsolved enigmas!
As to the origin of the name of this house, I have frequently been at a loss to account for it The two gentlemen of Verona, make the name familiar to the readers of our national bard; but why give the name to so prosaic a dwelling? though the neighbourhood is not without its poetic associations, for tradition tells of occasional visits of the great lyric poet, our famed Milton who married a Cheshire lady to Stoke, hard by, and comparatively recently, trees could be pointed out as part of a grove that bore his name .
