'The Mowing-Devil', printed in 1678. It recounts, as fact, an alleged incident in #Hertfordshire. A farmer saw a fiery light over his oat field one night, and then found it had been mysteriously mowed. The illustration encouraged some to believe it depicts the first Crop Circle. #WyrdWednesday

The cover of the 1678 pamphlet 'The Mowing-Devil, Or, strange NEWS out of Hart-fordshire. There follows lines of text outlining the incident and then a woodcut of a devilish creature with a scythe, which has cut concentric ovals in a field. Some of these lines might depict flattened stalks or flames.

A tombstone from St Mary's churchyard in #Hitchin, #Hertfordshire for #SkullSaturday. It is so eroded the text is not readable and there are even holes right through the stone. @churchmonuments.bsky.social @graveyardarch.bsky.social

A detail of the top of the tombstone showing two skulls above two sets of crossed bones. The skulls look towards each other. The top of the stone is two semicircles. The stone is grey with some yellow and green lichen.

A photo of the whole tombstone with the two skull-and-crossbones motif described in the previous photo. In the background are the dark brown doors of the west entrance to the church.

Clock tower entrance, St Albans #hertfordshire #england #gb #uk #britain #monochrome #photography #blackandwhite #nuisance

This is a black-and-white photograph of a historical wooden door set within a flint and stone wall, leading to the clock tower in St Albans. The door is arched, with a sturdy wooden frame reinforced by iron hinges and a latch. Above the door, the words "COMMIT NO NUISANCE" are inscribed in a simple yet bold font, adding an old-world charm and a sense of vintage authority.

The surrounding stonework is constructed from irregularly shaped flint and lighter stone accents, giving a textured and rustic appearance typical of medieval architecture. The weathered look of the materials suggests the building's age and historical significance. Below the door is a step, and the cobblestone foreground completes the scene, emphasizing the traditional English heritage.

This door reflects the character of St Albans and its historical landmarks, with the phrase above the door adding a whimsical, nostalgic touch that hints at the civic humor of the time.
