She was not a monster. She was poor. In Bideford, Devon, in 1682, Temperance Lloyd, Mary Trembles and Susanna Edwards were accused of witchcraft. They were women with little power, little protection, and a town ready to believe the worst. Much of the case was built on fear, suspicion and accusation — but the court still called it justice. On 25 August 1682, all three were hanged. They are remembered as the last women executed for witchcraft in England. So what do you think: justice, fear, or scapegoating? #BritishHistory #ForgottenHistory #WitchTrials #DevonHistory #HiddenHistory
