At the height of the North Berwick witch trials, one of the accused was burnt alive at Castlehill in Edinburgh on the order of James VI, King of Scots. This was an unusually harsh punishment, as contrary to common belief, most of the accused in Scotland were strangled before being burnt alive. Perhaps punished more harshly for religious or political reasons.
