Visiting The Grave Of Pendle Witch ALICE NUTTER | Halloween Walk
Вставка

- I visit the grave of the famous witch, Alice Nutter and I also get heckled by some school kids.
Alice Nutter (died 20 August 1612) was an Englishwoman accused and hanged as a result of the Pendle witch hunt. Her life and death are commemorated by a statue in the village of Roughlee in the Pendle district of Lancashire.
Unlike many accused of witchcraft, Alice was a member of a wealthy family who owned land in Pendle.
She was accused of being present at a witch meeting on Good Friday in 1612 and of later causing the death of Henry Milton. Her principal accuser was a nine-year-old girl. Nutter protested her innocence although others pleaded guilty.
Nutter's trial began at Lancaster Castle on 18 August where the accused were denied access to lawyers or the right to call witnesses. She was subsequently hanged at Gallows Hill in Lancaster on 20 August 1612. The others hanged were Anne Whittle ("Old Chattox"), Ann Redfearn, Elizabeth Device ("Squinting Lizzie"), Alison Device, James Device, Katherine Hewitt, Jane Bulcock, John Bulcock and Isobel Robey.

What a beautiful cemetery/graveyard. Thank you, Dan ❤I felt sorry for the woman who was accused of being a witch.
It is a graveyard since it is attached to a Church.

Goddess grant you rest sister.
I would be worried about Christian fascist. Trying to create a Christian planet.
Alot of women lost their lives just because people were scared and lashed out at the first person they didn't like! God rest their souls! 🙏
Lovely old cemetery. My heart goes out to all the innocent woman falsely accused and killed for being a witch. Thankfully, religion does not run our governments anymore.
Hello Teresa, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
May e she was a witch
Lol, deluded much. Run and ruled by the zionistic banking cabal and the freemasons....

I was surprised the “witch” grave was that close to the church. She must had been wealthy and active in the community to be buried so close to the church. The school kids were funny 😄. 🇺🇸
We don't actually know if she was buried in the family plot for this very reason
Alice Nutter was A Gentle woman who came froma wealthy home
she is related to me and my family and she was the last witch hung in britain
She came from a strong Catholic family. She had two brothers who were priests and who were executed.
Accused by a child and everyone’s just like, yep sounds like a witch to me! Madness. As you said, what a time to be alive!
it's the same today on social Media
@@johnhankinson1929 🤣🤣🤣🤣probably true now as well 🤔😊
I wonder what kind of life the 9-yr-old had? Imagine growing up and gaining an adult awareness of the part she played in a woman’s death. I am surprised the “witch” was buried on hallowed ground.
This was a lovely tour. Thank you.
The child grew up to have the same fate… was it karma?
The grave was bigger and very close to the church. I was expecting just a small headstone on the very edge of the church yard.
Poor Alice nutter and the other women she was hanged with . These ladies were often cited as witches for land , payback or because they would use herbs to heal people .
I find the pendle witch trials fascinating and many years ago when I was in my teens I met a lady who was a nieghbour of my late Aunty who was a direct decendent of Alice Nutter and Gennet Devize who was the nine year old girl at the time also testified against her grandmother mother brother and sister 20 years later she was brought to trial accused of witchcraft herself
wonder if im related
I love reading/watching stuff about the Pendle Witches!! It's ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING!! This video was an ABSOLUTE treat for me!! Thanks so much for uploading this, Dan!! XXXX 💚👍🧙♀️
Happy to show you around Nadia x
I am an American who has been doing family research and I am a descendent of the Nutters, I am not 100% sure exactly but looking at the information I have I think that her husband Richard was my many-times great-uncle, meaning poor Alice was my many-times great-aunt. It is sad what happened to her and all the others. I hope to visit someday and leave some flowers for her
Thank you so much for making this video; I love the United Kingdom and my cousins across the pond!
Such a beautiful graveyard. My heart goes out to all those accused and convicted to real or imagined witchcraft :(
Hello Beth, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
Real? Witchcraft?
I’m from the Pendle area and we were always told the grave was not that of “The” Alice Nutter as being convicted of Witchcraft she would not be buried on consecrated ground .
Hello Marie, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
80 years before Salem. This is great. Thanks so much.
“Definitely not a good move, hiding in the bushes with a camera.”Laughing on the floor laughing
Good job I didn't panic
loved this walk through , what a beautiful cemetery loved the church bells and the old tombstones , wonder if that grave was the vaccuum guy , and loved that witches grave ❤ great job
I'm surprised she was even allowed to be buried in the churchyard, much less so close to the church!! Another great walk, thanks!!
Because churches were built on pagan grounds, to stop pagans congregating upon that ground. Look into north dacing doors on churches. As most are east facing along with hebrewic and freemasonic belief systems.
Another awesome video Dan. Just love all the graveyard, cemetarys that you go to. I would love to go to the UK and see them in person. Maybe one day. Until then I will see them through you. Love from Georgia USA
Thanks Joan, you never know
Hello Joan, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
I love all of the very old tombstones, works of art compared to today's tombstones.
I like the respect you show to the departed in your walks, so I have decided to subscribe. Thank you, and carry on!
Thanks for subbing WhiteFlower. Glad you enjoyed it
So many wrongly accused,because people react to their own unknown feelings of fear! No proof! 🇺🇲
There is a tiny little old church called St Peters in the forest. It’s in upper Walthamstow, London. I used to go there as I lived opposite it. The gravestones there reflect how many children died in the 1800s. I’d have only been around 10 years old when I played in the Forest and visited the graves. I was never afraid.
Hello Pommie, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
It's been interesting to see how the degree of erosion on the grave markers can vary depending upon the environmental conditions of a region. Or do you think it's more down to the types of stone available in those regions? Also, was it common to allow "alleged" witches to be buried in hallowed ground? Thanks for another great video!
It's usually the sandstone makers that don't fair well in the UK as its nearly always damp here and the stones very porous. I also would have thought they wouldn't allow her to be buried in a graveyard, the usual method would be to be thrown in a mass grave near where they were hanged.
@@deadgoodwalks ohhhh that is spooky spooky spooky😱
I know at Brompton Cemetery, which isn't really that old compared to a lot of churchyards, a great number of stones are unreadable. The elements have worn the inscriptions completely off so the markers are smooth.
Looks like Luna moths, really large! Thanks again for sharing a lovely walk through those who sleep. :)
Thanks for the info Emb, they were amazing little things
Very interesting footage, love being able to see places that I may never get to see in person although I would love to visit Pendle one day. Not sure if you have been to Eyam the plague village might be worth a visit. Thank you, new subscriber
So beautiful! & The kids sounded adorable he wanted to make sure you heard his compliment 🙂
Thankyou so much. Great filming. Interesting & beautiful setting. I live on a texas ranch by myself. Was raining today,stumbled upon your video. I am subscribing.
Thank you very much Teri
Hello Teri, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
Salem in America had witch trails too about 80 years after Pendle.
Back off my holidays so catching up with your videos. Looking forwards to this one as it's only 30 mins away from me and we have visited the grave ourselves on many occasions 😁
Hope you enjoyed yourselves. Yeah not too far from me this one. Thanks for tuning in again.
@@deadgoodwalks If you plan on popping over to Blackburn Old Cemetery to cover any of the many interesting stories, if you want any company let me know 👍 We have a couple of videos to film ourselves over there in the next few weeks.
Good video Dan! Greetings from your cousins across the pond!
Love the clock at the beginning my friend it was chiming you in lol.
It was a lovely welcome
I love the sound of church bells. Thank you for another great video 🙏
Thanks Fiona
Another terrific video and beautiful place well done! Thank you!

Saw this on a grave stone once. Rather fitting don’t you think 🤔
Your humor is so refreshing. 😊
Love this walk! Perfect for the Halloween month! Thank s!
Rude interruption lol….I loved it! In 500 years, they’ll be saying with a shudder that THIS was a strange time to be alive.
Hello Mari, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
Loved that.. even someone from my home town of Dundee 🏴 I love cemeteries.. when I lived in Sydney Australia I loved walking through them and seeing the graves of ppl who had been sent to Oz aboard the first fleets.. many from Dundee and surrounding towns and villages.. even a grave of someone with the same name as my late dad.. was fascinating… thanks for sharing 🙏🏻
Thanks fellow cemetery lover Deb :)
Hello Deb, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
Kids play in the graveyard like it's the park.
Very nice walkabout in an old cemeteryl. Thank you. Enjoyed it.
Love your videos, do you ever do any tracings of the old graves?
I find it really sad hanging someone for simply just being different 😥may she and others like her who were hung rest in peace another lovely cemetery thank you 💜
What a beautiful cemetery. Thank you for the tour.
Thank you for saying hanged, using hung incorrectly is one of my pet peeves.
Hello Nickie, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
Another great episode ❤️
Some beautiful head stones. Feel very bad for the women accused of being witches. Horrible time to live, during those times. Thanks for the tour!
Thanks for watching again Liz
Love the history. Especially anything to do with witches and witch craft. Such a shame they were misunderstood. Let’s hope they are all resting in peace.
Thanks Dan. Nice peaceful Churchyard, apart from the pesky kids😁👍
Loved it! Good job. Beautiful cemetery.
Cheers Tony! Thanks for dropping in
Thanks for another great explore 👌 loved it 👍 take care my friend much love 💘❤ 💘 ❤
Thanks Karen

Nice video. Great job
Wonderful Walk. Thank You 😘
Cheers Jan
Nice work of art
Lovely cemetery, beautiful setting so pieceful. Enjoy your vids. very much. So sorry for Alice Nutter that she had no way to save herself.. Hello from the USA TRENTON NJ
Thanks Olga. Me too :(
Great video 👍 did you see 'The Eye of God' half way up the church tower ? It is supposed to have been put there to ward off witches apparently, I missed it on my first visit to that place. Pause your video at 0.33 seconds and you can see it just under half way up 👍
Thanks mate, I did...but before I went I read it was just an old bell ringers window so didn't cover it. But now I'm thinking how many of these have I actually seen before....zero. So maybe it is true
Cool video very interesting well executed loved the innocentchattering of the kids going by enjoyed this video thankyou 😊
Thanks Crystal, I guess they were ok in general ha
Hello Crystal, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
I enjoyed this as well ! Would love to know how the little girl fared , and what possessed her to call Alice Nutter a witch?
She attending a witch meeting
There is a documentary about the Pendle witches on UA-cam that mentions the girl testified against her own mother, brother, and sister (the Device family noted above). Supposedly 20 years later, there was a woman of the same name arrested for witch craft but it was later shown the boy made up the whole tale so luckily no one was hanged. However, people did die in prison while waiting for trials and its unknown if she was one of them as there is no record of her after this occurrence.
The little girl, Jennet Device was later accused of witchcraft herself but accquited.
'Ding dong the witch is dead.' hahaha perfect timing
The bell gives a chilling atmosphere.
I am related to the William Stansworth and to Alice Nutter, the Pendle "Witch". I wish I could afford to visit their graves. I would love a pictures of their gravestones.
Nature Guy X46 that is so freakin cool i absolutely love wise shamanic wise women id love to have met tour ancestors they sound like amazing awesome people
POV: trying not to feel awkward in front of 100 kids!! Respect! 😂
Great timing with the bell ringing .
Ding donG indeed .
For a minute there, I thought those kids were going to have you arrested, and I was going to offer you bail to get you out of jail, assuming the British justice system works like ours in the U.S. 😂
It is NOT Alice Nutters grave ! As a condemned witch she would have been buried in an unmarked grave within Lancaster Castle. I lived in Newchurch in Pendle for several years and we always told everyone who visited the truth.
I can't complete with local knowledge, but I've read she came from a wealthy family, maybe her family paid to have her brought back to be buried on the family plot?
@@deadgoodwalks it wouldn't have been allowed, she wouldn't have been able to be buried on consecrated ground. However the grave in the churchyard is that of a relative, many Nutters still live in the area.

There's a beautiful old graveyard at the end of the road I live in which I often walk around with my dog. Lots of very old graves and huge old trees and lots of wildlife. We saw a small deer in there a couple of times. Not sure there are any unfortunate souls accused of witchcraft buried there, but you never know. The church dates from the 11th century.
I remember reading about the pendle witches. Really interesting video
Poor Alice X and all of the little ones ,may they rest in peace
Hello Marie, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
i think the church bell was going off because it knew you were visiting so decided to welcome you know of 2 graveyards or so in leeds youd like eventhough you cant wander the south one sadly due to heavy disrepair
This is amazing. The Nutter family members headstone shows Erim Nutter 1651, George Nutter 165?, (possibly 1651?), and Isabel and Margaret I couldn't see the date. That would make their headstone one of the earliest dated that you have seen. The tabletop slab that you visited after Alice looked like it said Henry Parker?, and it was dated 1691. We don't have headstones dating that far back in the US. Those are remarkable.
Check out the video from old St Peter’s church in Llanbedr, there was a grave dated 1616! I got it wrong on the day in the witch video
@@deadgoodwalks I will definitely check that one out. Thank you.
A very beautiful location
Today we learn what a taphophile is kiddies
Rest in eternal peace all those poor souls murdered and accused of witchcraft whether true or not no one had the right to take their lives ❤and anyone practicing witchcraft can do it openly as it is not a crime
My three times great grandad is buried in the cemetery in Colne.
Colne video coming soon
It's grieving really when you walk around old churchyards and think 🤔 Once these people were walking around living and breathing like everyone else now their lying beneath cold stone beneath mounds of soil. Accused of being a witch. That's the Catholic church for you! And church of England! When Jesus died for all. He died was crucified and on the 3rd day rose again. So that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. He died for witches also.
I love old graveyards so peaceful
Would be awesome if you could teach the symbolism from the HeadStones and Markings, I do know the Yearns with the Capes, known as,"Full Life" when died half "Budded Rose" died young, and some others I do know, Thanks...
Hello Deidra, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
Beautiful but sombre, as with many graveyards.
What a beautiful cemetery. And so well cared for.
Glad poor Alice is buried right next to the church. A bit of poetic justice for her, may she rest in peace.
She was innocent! 🙏
Hello Ilene, how are you doing today, hope you’re fine and safe from the COVID-19 virus??
😂k that was a good start . the bell would of jumped scared me. I mean we are just gonna walk in here and visit a witches grave 😂 dong lol
Very interesting video
If you've ever read or come across the book Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman, the names of Agnes Nutter and her descendant Anathema Device were inspired by two of the victims of the 1612 Pendle witch trials, Alice Nutter and Elizabeth Device.
What rude interruption?? Are you talking about the ringing of the bell? I think that was beautiful and something they're supposed to do and not stop for others.
Yeah, just a joke x
@@deadgoodwalks oh ok. I was going to say, or was it the comment you made about the witch.

That's the Nutter Family plot... but poor Alice wouldn't have been permitted burial there. Witches weren't buried on consecrated ground, not being in God's grace.
Although there is a rumour that the family maybe smuggled her remains into the grave later.
Yeah, they were pretty wealthy

The Dyson connection could be true. James Dyson was from North Norfolk

I am surprised that a professed witch was buried in a church yard
used to live not far in barrowford nr nelson didnt get a chance to pop up there shame
i am related to alice nutter well my family is
alice nutter has a sister as well
A witch would not have been buried in consecrated ground,so that can`t be the witches grave .
So sad that people back in the day could accuse a woman or man of witchcraft and especially in this case a 9 yo child and the masses took things in their hands and hung people. I think it is sad.
I love your videos and you don’t get into things that controversial. ❤
Scary times to live in indeed
It’s such a beautiful area.

There is a fascinating BBC documentary on the Pendle Witches by poet Simon Armitage, it's called "The Pendle Witch Child" its on UA-cam if you search with that title.
Thanks, I'll have a look
My mum had a carpet fitter in her home one time he was a medium and he said in her past life she was a witch from pendle hill wich brought us down here from Newcastle it’s a long story but if you’d like to hear more I’ll reply with my email xx
You would think that "witches" were not allowed to be buried, next to a church! Does anyone know if there were rules for that?
You're right, they would normally be thrown in a pit near where they were executed, but there are exceptions that I can't explain
@@deadgoodwalks Is there anyone else who can explain this? Had it anything to do with having money? Or did they eventually have doubts about her being a witch? Because there are more "witches" buried at cemeteries.
