Episode 1 - The Witches of Warboys Part 1: Ants in the Ear

I am joined for our very first episode by Jo McPhee and Katy Holliday. Listen agog as we harken back to the late 16th Century and the murky fenlands of Huntingdonshire to introduce the story of the Throckmorton girls, who lived in the manor house of the village of Warboys, and Alice Samuels, the local woman they accused of witchcraft. We also drink some very delicious gin and tonics and specially chosen beers.

Take a look at the digitised pamphlet referred to in the episode, from the collection of the Norris Museum in St Ives.
