vendingmachine commented on the word witches' stones
Witches' stones are flat stones jutting from chimneys in the islands of Jersey and Guernsey.
According to folklore in the Channel Islands, these small ledges were used by witches to rest on as they fly to their sabbats. Householders would provide these platforms to appease witches and avoid their ill favor.
