Now kicking back with a documentary.
We must remember those who came before. Healers, strong caring women who were vilified & hunted as men wanted to take their power. Witch hunts were about misogyny, pure & simple. We remember those women & we honour them.
What a fabulous tweet to receive today π

And thatβs a wrap on my research trip (at least for now)
I may need to get to London over the coming months to answer a few new questions (typical), but #Manchester and #Pendle were very good to me π /End

Day 11 β
Yesterday was the final day of my research trip, all of that planning and I finished early!
For my last day, I visited @LancsArchives in #Preston /1
Shout out to @witchesetc for recommending these papers - mystery not quite solved, but most certainly a little less mysterious!
While in @LancsArchives some of the amazing archivists also brought me some #Local#Witch#Charms to get me excited π§πΌββοΈ/3
@NicoleGHam AMAZING! Congratulations my love, youβve done so well, and I canβt wait to read this! (Though maybe after I submit so I donβt get too overwhelmed π₯²)
Check you out, you absolute superstar scholar!
