The Witches of Belvoir Castle


Tracy Borman

Come and meet Tracy Borman at the Stamford Arts Centre this Friday 8th November at 7.30pm as she explores the fascinating and cruel world of the witches of Belvoir Castle. 

The heir of one of England’s great noble families falls suddenly and dangerously ill and it is said witches are to blame. 

The Earl of Rutland’s sons will not be the last to die. Tracy will talk about one of the most notorious witchcraft trials of the 17th century. At its heart was a murderous conspiracy that has remained hidden for almost 400 years.

Tracy studied history and has gone on to work for the Heritage Lottery Fund, The National Archives and English Heritage. 

Tracy is now Chief Executive of the Heritage Education Trust has recently been appointed Interim Chief Curator for Historic Royal Palaces. 

Tracy is a gifted speaker and this promises to be a truly fascinating evening.

Tickets are £8 (£7.50 concessions) and include a glass of wine or soft drink.

Available from the Arts Centre
either in advance, or on the night.

Book On-line at the Arts Centre's Website

Tracy will be singing copies of her new book The Witches, after the event.
