Renfrewshire’s dark past will now be more readily available for people to learn from as a special installation at the site of one of the area’s most macabre locations is unveiled.
A plaque with a QR code on has been installed at the Witches’ Well on Gallows Green in Paisley’s west end.
Smartphone users can scan the code and be taken on an ‘augmented reality’ journey detailing the story of how accusations from 11-year-old Christian Shaw in 1697 led to the death of seven Renfrewshire citizens – four women, a father and his two young sons – who were believed to be witches.
