Author: Tree CarrA haunting guide to witch trial sites across Britain. Between the 16th and 18th centuries, thousands of people — mostly women — were executed for witchcraft across what is now the United Kingdom. Accused takes readers on a journey through the stones, plaques and memorials that mark the victims’ stories. With entries organised by region, this guide blends historical context with folklore, local legend and contemporary acts of remembrance. From Janet Horne in the Highlands to Ursula Kemp in Essex, and from the Pendle witches to the last trial in Ireland, it shines a light on voices once silenced by fear and injustice, and offers a vivid and moving exploration of this dark and often forgotten past.ISBN 9781068523458.
