Medieval beliefs in villages like Dunster

Would you like to know what life was like in Medieval Dunster? What people believed in, what they were afraid of and how these beliefs moulded their lives?

Author of the ‘Magical House Protection: The Archaeology of Counter-Witchcraft’ Brian Hoggard, will give an intriguing talk about the great number of witch bottles, dried cats, horse skulls, written charms and protective markings that have been discovered in the fabric of numerous buildings throughout the British Isles - and also in Dunster!
