Did I tell you Iβve been working with some Wilts College media students on their folklore project?
One group chose The Old Bell, Malmesbury and I noticed something in a window.

The child resembles Newfoundland mummering

According to a Flemish folktale, people went on pilgrimages and visited monks to make a witch give up her powers. Their attempts were fruitless. She remained a witch and cursed the houses of those who had wanted to change her.
