That was more Tudor/ Elizabethan times they did that. Queen Mary burned 300 Protestants (Protested against the church) in her life time.

I think (but I'm not sure) that witches were burned mainly in Scotland and mainly long before the Victorian age.. not sure though *goes to google witches*

They werent still burning witches in Victorian times I dont think

"The last person executed for witchcraft in England was Alice Molland who was hanged at Exeter in 1684.

Scotland continued executing alleged witches until 1722; Janet Horne being the last to suffer this fate."

So yeah.. the burning of witches stopped long before the Victorian era :)
