    Historians are now speculating that the well-preserved cottage could have belonged to one of the Pendle witches.

    The building contained a sealed room, with the bones of a cat bricked into the wall.

    It is believed the cat was buried alive to protect the cottage's inhabitants from evil spirits.
    A fascinating bit of history.
