Co-Directors: Victoria McCollum Dr Victoria McCollum and Andrew Sneddon Dr Andrew Sneddon. Ulster University

Read about it in Dr Andrew Sneddon’s book.
Also, IslandMagee Witches 1711 Project
A Belfast Festival of History sure has some buy-in! Around 60 of you joined us at The Linen Hall to hear Glenn Patterson, Donal Fallon, Kim Mawhinney, Leanne McCormick, and Hugh Odling-Smee discuss the topic. Always more questions then answers but the momentum is clear
OK, so the #LongRoom doesn't look like this just now, but it's always #WorldBookDay here The Library of Trinity College Dublin.
