At the centre of a ruined 15th‑century church, an oak tree rises through the floor - known in local folklore as ‘The Witch’s Leg’. According to the legend, the oak stems from the enchanted wooden leg of The Witch of East Somerton, who was buried alive in consecrated ground.
‘The Witch’s Leg’ documents the tree and space in which it inhabits, whilst investigating a sense of ritual, circling, and the more contemporary use of the environment.
