Historic 1700s manor once home to 'victim' of Pendle witches on sale

The lavish home of a family reported to be the first victims of the Pendle witches has gone on sale in a small village near Nelson.

Stories claim that the duo thought they had been bewitched by a widow nicknamed Chattox and her daughter Anne Redfearn, who lived on their land. In 1612, as the witch trails took place in Lancaster Castle, the evidence was used against nine Pendle people. The women, as well as other family members and neighbours, were found guilty and hanged. Greenhead Manor's prominent history now features as key part of most Pendle witch walking trails in the area.View gallery Now, the manor house which received heritage status in 1953 is listed on RightMove with a price tag of £799,950. The five-bedroom property stands on impeccable grounds accessed via electronic gates with a shared cobbled driveway leading to the front of the property.

The entire room is full of unique character with exposed ceiling beams throughout and wooden detailing on the walls, in keeping with the properties original features. Through the hallway, another rustic wooden door leads onto the kitchen which features a range of wooden wall and base units and contrasting worktops.
