Lydney Docks haunted? (General)

My father, Bob Vine, used to work at the docks & repeated the story Mr Sterry had told him of the ghost disappearing into the mist. This may be connected to another story about a sword fight in Naas House with Cavaliers & Roundheads, I don't know if there was a house there during this period. It may have just been a story to scare us.

I remember him helping out with some barges of logs during a walk to the docks & having a cup of tea in the little hut, so strong you could stand the spoon up. We used to camp at the top of the steps leading up to the field. There is a level area at the top which is over grown now. I remember my Dad repairing those steps in about 1970, but they may have been there much earlier.
