After a couple of pints of cider consumed here, maybe?   ;)

It looked like that, but don´t they all? Cider was indeed responsible for the frequent intoxication back in the days...  ;)

Going to Devon is easy for me...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apfelwein
Apfelwein is made from pressed apples of a small, indigenous tree known as Speierling (Sorbus domestica) or Speyerling, an endangered species that is easily confused with the wild apple.

Apfelwein is mainly produced and consumed in Hesse (where it is the state beverage), particularly in the Frankfurt, Wetterau, and Odenwald areas. Some of these regions have regular cider competitions and fairs, in which the small, private producers participate. Cider songs are composed and sung at these events.

Sounds lovely, I would love to go to one of those cider fairs! Cider songs are the best!   lol

A bit of a WIP here for my first building. It has to be a pub of course! Initially it will represent The Tors Inn at Belstone where the Witchfinders intend to base themselves. The nearby church of St. Mary's has a cucking stool, which may well come in handy! I have got some paint on the Okehampton Trayned Band troopers, just need to highlight and finish them off now.





The Tors Inn, Belstone

Looks like an interesting project. Will you be using the Witchfinder General rules?

Thanks. Yes, I have already bought a copy of Witchfinder General from Dashing Dice Games.. I've had one quick read-through and I really like the look of it. I'm just trying to paint enough figures to try out the rules, now.

I've finished painting the first witch of the Belstone Cleave Coven. Rest assured, pretty much all the other witches (there will obviously be 13 in total) will have pointy hats! However, one Witch, three Ghouls and a Wisht Hound does not a game make, so back to the painting desk.

Who makes this particular witch?
"One of My Men Became Restless" focuses on 15mm Horse & Musket periods and 25mm Horse & Musket, Fantasy, Horror and Victorian everything! Occasionally there'll be stuff of related interest but it's mostly a painters blog.  See it all here: http://flashman14.blogspot.com/

Of course! I recognized but couldn't place it.

What about for the other witches forthcoming?
