Spring in to Spring

Clocks have gone forward, nights are much longer and the weather has been fantastic, lets hope it lasts until easter.  Good Friday this year will be the 400th anniversary of the last meeting of the Pendle Witches.  No one will ever know the exact site for Malkin Tower but whatever you want to believe, you can believe that this area has been called Malkin, however it was spelt, for hundreds of years.  Blacko Primary school last year started unearthing what looks like ruins, sadly since this began the weather has not been on our side, lets hope that maybe this year we can unearth a little more.
Have a good easter and lets give a thought to those witches, who were probably no more than our modern day herbalists!!!
