Sharing this picture of Tranent Parish Church, SE of Edinburgh, Scotland (2025). My inlaws have connections here, going back to the 1800s. The locals were surprised--but welcoming--to see us wandering around.

In the middle of an unassuming new-build housing estate in Prestonpans, just outside Edinburgh, you can find this imposing statue. The work of Andy Scott’s, who also designed the Kelpies, it is a memorial to the 81 men and women who, throughout the 17thC, were executed in the town for witchcraft.

With most areas not far from the average, it's very easy to see the outliers, all of which are having trouble with rebounding levels. In Scotland the outlier is East Lothian. 2/7
