British history | She begged for turnips. They called it witchcraft. Walkern, 1712. Jane Wenham — poor, old, alone. A farmer’s sheep died and the village blamed her. 16 witnesses. A girl said Jane made her fly. The judge said there was no law against flying — the jury convicted her anyway. He couldn’t stop the verdict, only the rope. The last woman in England condemned as a witch. Mercy, justice, or a village that needed someone to blame? #BritishHistory #ForgottenHistory #WitchTrials
