About The Event

Far from being confined to rural areas, accusations of witchcraft were once rife in the capital.


In this vibrant walking tour, Maria Beadell explores the lives of the women persecuted as witches in London. Centred on the richly historic area in and around St. Paul's Cathedral, the group weaves through the backstreets and even visits a pagan temple.
