A group of young women in long dresses standing in a circle, next to a medieval stone structure. Night and shadows, darkness and fire. Mistycal and magical atmosphere, maybe witches casting a spell.

Description
Cragg Vale is a peaceful Pennine village built in a valley, once the site of a Norman deer park, later in the Middle Ages the centre of a thriving iron smelting industry and centuries later, during the Industrial Revolution, home to around a dozen cotton mills. It runs off the Calder Valley from the village of Mytholmroyd, near Hebden Bridge, and climbs steadily up the hillside to the moors atop Blackstone Edge, where one of England's most dramatic Roman roads can still be seen, majestic amidst the heather. This tiny village consists of a long road up the hill and this tiny hamlet in the bottom of the valley. It became famous in the 18th Centuary when a group of men, lead by "King" David Hartley and with the assitance of local publicans, began to counterfeit coins. The publicans would take real coins, the 'coiners' as they became known would scrape gold from around the edges and pass them back to the publicans to put into circulation. The only difference was that they were a tiny bit smaller, but nobody would notice. They melted the scraped gold and reformed it to make new coins. When rumours of their counterfeiting reached the authorities they sent an Excise Officer, William Dighton, to investigate in 1769. They were caught only after "King David" put a ransom on the head of Dighton and two men set out to find him. He was shot in the head and killed. Hartley was hanged in York and his body buried in Heptonstall, on the other side of Hebden Bridge.
