The Pendle Witches lived in a turbulent time in
England's history and their story of witchcraft
and mystery still lives on today. This full day
tour follows the trail of the Pendle Witches through
the beautiful and picturesque countryside of North
Lancashire and the Ribble Valley.
In the shadow of Pendle Hill this tour offers
the opportunity to visit the villages rich in legends
of the witches including Newchurch, the one time
home of their ring-leader Alice Nutter. Also visit
Downham where "Whistle Down The Wind" starring
Alan Bates and Hayley Mills was filmed in the 1960's
and today the setting for the acclaimed "Born and
Bred" BBC Television series. Explore Clitheroe
Castle and learn more of this fascinating area.
All this and the breathtaking beauty of the Trough
of Bowland with its rolloing moorland and spectacular
views over Lancashire, Cumbria and the Yorkshire
Dales make this a most memorable day.
