Exeter Castle, Exeter, Devon, England.
Rougemont Castle also known as Exeter Castle,
Rougemont Castle, the ancient Bardic Seat of Exeter, is home to a remembrance plaque to the witches.Now one of Devon's most spectacular wedding venues situated in the heart of Exeter City Centre.This site used to be a prison; the last execution was of three witches, hanged in the 1680s. Some of those executed here are said to be restless in the afterlife and have been reported to disturb guests’ hospitality here.
For more than 100 years Exeter was England's epicentre for witchcraft with county's first and last apparent witch hangings taking place in the city.
Recent studies have found Exeter was not only the last place in England where people were hanged for practising the 'dark arts', but they were just the last in a series of executions which may have begun as early as 1566.
Many of these individuals were believed to possess 'familiar spirits' or demons in the shape of small animals, like rats and toads, which unleashed their evil powers to waste both livestock and humans on the witches' behalf.Temperance Lloyd, Susannah Edwards and Mary Trembles, the so-called Bideford witches, were hanged in August 1682 at Exeter Prison.
Records show Lloyd was accused of 'having discourse or familiarity' with the devil and 'having used some magical art, sorcery or witchcraft'.
Edwards and Trembles, who both lived with her, were also arrested before all three were executed.Historians say the women were convicted on hearsay evidence, which included one of them being accused of turning into a magpie.
Lloyd was arrested first after she was accused of communicating with the devil and using witchcraft to cause a woman to fall ill.
Local constables in Bideford then held Trembles and Edwards – who lived with Lloyd and begged for food with her.
The three women were hanged a month later.
Two local women, Maud Park and Alice Mead, appeared before the city court in 1566 and were charged with causing death and physical injury through the exercise of 'magic art'.
Park and Mead were both found guilty, and Professor Stoyle said it likely they were given a death sentence making them among the first people in England to be executed for witchcraft following the passage of the statute.
In another case from 1585, Exeter woman Thomasine Shorte was convicted of killing an entire family of a weaver using the 'black arts' and was executed at the city gallows.
In 1602 widow Mary Stone was accused of killing chickens, infesting a household with lice and killing a man by bewitching him, causing him to fall from a field stile.She was also alleged to have commanded a familiar, in the shape of a rat, to spy on a woman and 'do her harm'.
It's believed Stone somehow escaped a death sentence and continued to live among her suspicious neighbours.
At Exeter Castle, once a jail and the court for the 17th-century “Hanging” Judge George Jeffreys’ Bloody Assizes,a paranormal investigater Ghai had an experience that made him jump out of his skin. He was in the public lavatories, which had been a “suicide cell” for prisoners awaiting trial, when he heard a woman’s curdling scream.

Exeter is an ancient city on the River Exe in southwest England. Dating back to the Roman era, the Exeter City Walls surround its centre and Gothic Exeter Cathedral. Exeter Castle, a Norman landmark, overlooks leafy Northernhay and Rougemont Gardens. To their west, the Royal Albert Memorial Museum & Art Gallery (RAMM) displays fine art and costumes. The vaulted, medieval Underground Passages snake beneath the city.
Exeter lies within the county of Devon, of which it is the county town as well as the home of Devon County Council. Currently, the administrative area has the status of a non-metropolitan district and is therefore under the administration of the County Council (there was a plan to grant the city unitary authority status, although this was scrapped under the 2010 coalition government). The city is on the River Exe about 37 miles (60 km) northeast of Plymouth and 70 miles (110 km) southwest of Bristol.
Exeter was the most south-westerly Roman fortified settlement in Britain, although there is evidence a Cornish tribe existed in Exeter before the Roman invasion. Exeter became a religious centre during the Middle Ages and into the Tudor times: Exeter Cathedral, founded in the mid 11th century, became Anglican during the 16th-century English Reformation. During the late 19th century, Exeter became an affluent centre for the wool trade, although by the First World War the city was in decline. After the Second World War, much of the city centre was rebuilt and is now considered to be a centre for modern business and tourism in Devon and Cornwall.
The M5 motorway to Bristol and Exeter starts at Birmingham, and connects at Bristol with the M4 to London and South Wales. Exeter's main operator of local buses is Stagecoach South West, which operates most of the services in the city. Dartline is a minor operator in the City. Exeter is considered to be a rail hub within the south-west and is linked to most branch lines in Devon, including to Paignton, Exmouth, Barnstaple and Okehampton (by a special service). Exeter International Airport lies east of the city, and the local airline, previously called Jersey European and British European but now known as Flybe . The Exeter Canal also known as the Exeter Ship Canal was first completed in about 1566.

James Cotter's History of Exeter - The Fight for the Throne
James Cotter's History of Exeter is a historical documentary presented by James Cotter. These mini historical documentaries will be about key and fascinating events in Exeter's wide-ranging and varied past.
The Fight For The Throne - James examines the role of Exeter and most importantly Danes Castle in a period of British history not as infamous as the periods that pasted before and after it but still as important in establishing Exeter as a key player in some of the most decisive events in British history including The Roman Invasion, The English Civil War and The Industrial Revolution. In the first episode of the series James looks at a period of history know as The Anarchy or The Nineteen-Year Winter where civil unrest swept across the country and The Norman King Stephen fought for his crown under a barge of chaos and rebellion from The Empress Matilda resulting in Exeters historic Rougemount Castle being sieged by the King himself in 1136.

Day 172~ Exeter Castle
Went back to look, the witches were hanged and the castle is like 2000 years old, built by Romans. Apparently the castle only opens during special days and so all that searching back and forth was for not. Kinda, it was still fun to search.
