“There is a little fold, called ‘Prickshaw,’ in this township of Spotland, which fold was the home of a notable country astrologer, in Tim Bobbin's time, called ‘Prickshaw Witch.’ Tim tells a humourous^([sic]) story in his works, about an adventure he had with this Prickshaw planet-ruler, at the old Angel Inn, in Rochdale.”

“In the late nineteenth century white witches were still sometimes known as ‘planet-rulers’.”
