The First Essex Witch Trials Talk

Event Details
The First Essex Witch Trials Talk will be all about the history in Harwich.
Over 700 people were accused of witchcraft, in East Anglia, during 1560 and 1675 – more than any other county! Why? Women learnt about plants and how they could cure – people were often jealous of their healing skills. Essex was a poor county awash with superstition. Peggy makes this serious subject both interesting and humorous.
Refreshments and raffle on the night!
