Old Mother Shipton ~ Prophetess of the Northern Moors
Episode 201
She was born in a cave during a thunderstorm. A child so strange in appearance and so wrapped in mystery that whispers of witchcraft followed her from the cradle to the grave. Her name was Ursula Southeil—though most remember her by another: Old Mother Shipton.
In the 16th century, England was a place of upheaval. Kings and queens rose and fell. The world was expanding. Science and superstition danced an uneasy waltz. And in the midst of it all, this Yorkshire prophetess was said to foresee it all—fires, plagues, invasions, and even flying machines.
But who was she, really? A cunning woman? A folk legend? Or something far stranger?
This is the story of Old Mother Shipton—the woman who saw the future, and still haunts the past.
