Daisy Wheel Witch Marking on Lime Plaster
Renovation of Farm barn buildings at Cragend

Witches' markings: "Public urged to check their house for strange symbols carved into the walls by Historic England".

 

When we saw this headline today, 31st October 2016 Halloween, we thought we must write a blog about the ones we have near the front Door in our Hall. Carved into the lime plaster near the entrance there are several markings, with one very clear Daisy Wheel.
