Our History
The town of Barley and the area known as the Pendle Hill are rich in history and fascinating stories. Dating back to the 13th century, the landmark was originally named Pennul or Penhul, originating from the Cumbric pen and the Old English hyll, both of which translate to "hill". The area is most well known for the infamous Pendle Witch Trials of 1612. One of the most famous witch trials in history, the incident saw twelve women accused of witchcraft, with eleven hanging for the alleged crimes and one dying during imprisonment.
