The Witches of Pendle Hill. Were they witches? Did they commit the crimes that they were convicted of. Their famous trial in 1612 is one of the best documented legal cases of the time and it saw many of them put to death after suffering in the squalid conditions of jail. It's a story that began with a simple altercation. But it's a story that we don't feel qualified enough to tell...so we drafted in an expert. Lynzie Cotton is the curator of pendlecore.com and she knows far more about the trial and the fate of these women (and one man). This is not just a case that is important to local folklore but it shaped the way that children give legal evidence in court today. We hope you'll find this episode as interesting as we did. Are Witches real? Of course they are, but they might not be what you think! Go grab yourself a cold one, kick back and enjoy.
