Exeter - You can see the Roman wall and in the other picture how the Normans, Georgians and Victorians added to the wall with slightly different stone and masonry techniques. Above on the right is the Guild Hall from the 1500s and still in use for civic occasions and the campus of the University of Exeter framed as it is by the River Exe. The plaque is in memory of last four women hung for witchcraft:
- Temperance Lloyd
- Susannah Edwards
- Mary Trembles [all 3 of whom met their death in 1682]
- and Alice Molland [tried and hung in 1685]
