Lancashire Adult Learning are delivering this one-off session, an exploration of witchcraft and the witch trials of the 1600s in Lancashire, particularly the story of the Pendle Witches. We will be looking at the common misconceptions about witchcraft and the reasons for the trials at Lancaster. We will also look at later witch trials and the work of the Witchfinder General as well as the demise of the ‘witch craze’. We will use maps, diagrams, personal accounts to add to our understanding. Learners are encouraged to bring their own personal histories, research and knowledge of the period and the topic to share and discuss with the group.
