Today was the Renfrewshire Witch Hunt Re-enactment from1697.
In 1697 eleven year old Christian Shaw became “possessed by witches" and as a result seven citizens of Renfrewshire were put to death.
This was recreated today by a dedicated group of performers and background supporters who entertained and educated us on the history.

They should all be congratulated on a very successful event, and were rewarded with a large crowd who thoroughly enjoyed the day.
