On Gallows Hill

Michal Morey was born on the Isle of Wight in the late 17th century. Employed as a woodcutter and married to Beth, they live in a run down cottage on the edge of Pan Wood. Michal was renowned for being an unpopular, jealous man with an evil temper. Richard Norris, a neighbour who holds a strong affection for Beth, vows to revenge Michal in some way. On Gallows Hill is loosely based upon a true story. It is a tale of love, hate and jealousy of a bitter woodcutter. Of how his temper drove him to commit the ultimate sacrifice. The remains of the cottage can still be seen nestled at Downend, on the Island.Kent, Harriet J. is the author of 'On Gallows Hill', published 2007 under ISBN 9781434311429 and ISBN 1434311422.
