The Lost Witches of Dunkeld

Part of Dunkeld Living History Event

28 July 2023

For further information and full details of the The Living History events visit: archives@historicdunkeld.org.uk 

THE LOST WITCHES OF DUNKELD

 Think you know about Witches? Think again

 In the 1600s a vicious war was waged against so-called witches and to be labelled as one could be fatal, but what happened in Dunkeld and the surrounding areas was quite different.

 Local storyteller Lindsey Gibb will introduce you to the women and men who were accused of witchcraft in this area and their surprising fates. Amongst many others, you'll meet Margaret, Countess of Atholl, the truculent Robert Small of Meigle, Dunkeld's Issobell Douglas and Margaret Stewart who fought back.

 It'll change how you think about witches...

Birnam Arts has made such a difference to Birnam since its redevelopment 20 years ago, and attracts an incredible variety of high-quality arts performers. It's also a great Community space. We're very happy to make a contribution to such an asset.

I have enjoyed taking part in events such as Scots Opera before we came to live in the area. Since then we have enjoyed both attending events and the splendid cafe In the foyer. It is a brilliant example of a local/regional community arts initiative and must not be allowed to falter.
