040: Proud in Pendle (Barley, Newchurch and Pendle Hill) (Forest of Bowland 2015)
PENDLE HILL WALK FEATURING BARLEY, OGDEN RESERVOIRS AND NEWCHURCH-IN-PENDLE
"Proud in Pendle"
Filmed 26th May 2015
Post-production completed 20th June 2015
Pendle Hill was a location which first drew my attention from watching a video on the “Walking with the Taxi Driver” website. I decide to visit this delightful spot in Lancashire for myself, where I discover a little of “Pendle Witch Country” and tackle the strenuous but rewarding climb up Pendle Hill.
Filmed in the county of Lancashire. Locations include Barley, Newchurch-in-Pendle, Ogden Reservoirs and Pendle Hill. This is the first film in the Forest of Bowland.
Written, researched, directed, camera and sound, edited and music by Patrick Leach.

18th August 1612: The Pendle Witch trials of nine Lancashire women and two men
The trials of the Pendle Witches are not only some of the most famous but also some of the best recorded witch trials in British history. This is due to a published account called The Wonderfull Discoverie of Witches in the Countie of Lancaster by Thomas Potts, the clerk to the Lancaster Assizes where all but one of the trials took place.
One interesting aspect of the trials is that the majority of the defendants self-identified as witches, or at least as village healers who practised what they referred to as ‘magic’ in return for payment. A number of the accused even admitted to Roger Nowell, the justice of the peace for Pendle and chief prosecutor at the trials, that witchcraft had been practised by a number of people in the area around Pendle Hill for many years.
Accused of the murder...

Simon Armitage presents the extraordinary story of the most disturbing witch trial in British history and the key role played in it by one nine-year-old girl.

Pendle Hill was a location which first drew my attention from watching a video on the “Walking with the Taxi Driver” website.

Filmed in the county of Lancashire. Locations include Barley, Newchurch-in-Pendle, Ogden Reservoirs and Pendle Hill. This is the first film in the Forest of Bowland.
Written, researched, directed, camera and sound, edited and music by Patrick Leach.
Any other names credited in this film, i.e. Bob Morgan and Martin Roy, are pseudonyms, which I used at the time of making this film. However, I no longer use these pseudonyms as I want viewers to be clear that my films are completely my own work.

"The Solitary Rambler" is my series of amateur films of my journeys in the countryside accompanied by my own musical scores, which I compose and perform on my Yamaha keyboard.
Please note that, as with all the films I make, this is not actually intended to be an extensive guide to the area. This is a mini-movie of my personal journey along the walk, in which I often share some of my own personal stories.
If you are new to my channel, I strongly recommend reading the description under the “about” tab, which will provide a clearer understanding of what to expect in my films: https://www.youtube.com/c/solitaryrambler/about
There is also a short “Introduction to the Solitary Rambler” video, which briefly explains what my films are all about: https://www.youtube.com/c/solitaryrambler/featured

The trials of the Pendle Witches are not only some of the most famous but also some of the best recorded witch trials in British history. This is due to a published account called The Wonderfull Discoverie of Witches in the Countie of Lancaster by Thomas Potts, the clerk to the Lancaster Assizes where all but one of the trials took place.
One interesting aspect of the trials is that the majority of the defendants self-identified as witches, or at least as village healers who practised what they referred to as ‘magic’ in return for payment. A number of the accused even admitted to Roger Nowell, the justice of the peace for Pendle and chief prosecutor at the trials, that witchcraft had been practised by a number of people in the area around Pendle Hill for many years.
Accused of the murders of various people in and around the area, twelve people were charged. One of there was found not guilty and another died in prison before going to trial. The other ten were found guilty and executed by hanging.
In historical terms, the Pendle Witch trials were significant for their scale. Despite a popular belief that witch trials were a common occurrence in the early modern period, only around five hundred people were executed for witchcraft throughout the 300 year period when they were carried out.
Statistically, this means that the ten found guilty in Pendle represented two per cent of all British witches to face trial over three centuries.

Simon Armitage presents the extraordinary story of the most disturbing witch trial in British history and the key role played in it by one nine-year-old girl. Jennet Device, a beggar-girl from Pendle in Lancashire, was the star witness in the trial in 1612 of her own mother, her brother, her sister and many of her neighbours and, thanks to her chilling testimony, they were all hanged. In 'The Pendle Witch Child' poet Simon Armitage explores the lethal power and influence of one child's words - a story of fear, magic and demonic pacts retold partly with vivid and innovative hand-drawn animation.

The trials of the Pendle witches in 1612 are among the most famous witch trials in English history, and some of the best recorded of the 17th century. The twelve accused lived in the area surrounding Pendle Hill in Lancashire, and were charged with the murders of ten people by the use of witchcraft. All but two were tried at Lancaster Assizes on 18–19 August 1612, along with the Samlesbury witches and others, in a series of trials that have become known as the Lancashire witch trials. One was tried at York Assizes on 27 July 1612, and another died in prison. Of the eleven who went to trial – nine women and two men – ten were found guilty and executed by hanging; one was found not guilty.
