Betty Whipp

Betty Whipp was a character who lived on the moss at Astley a few miles from Leigh. Although not regarded as a witch, she made love potions for those hoping to encourage a potential partner. Betty was also a weaver of evil spells, and for those wishing to do harm to another she would assist in causing livestock to die or an enemy to become dangerously ill. The charming Ms. Whipp died at the age of a hundred-and-nine.
