📌 Dunning, Perth & Kinross

“Maggie Wall burnt here 1657 as a witch”

…declare the scrawling letters painted on bare stone. In the 17th century, the village of Dunning was a hotspot, literally, for witch and warlock trials and executions. This lonely stone monument stands by the road out of the village to the west. Little is known about the burning of Maggie Wall – including whether it even happened – but the site has a distinctly macabre atmosphere nevertheless.
