Description

Striking photographs and remarkable histories come together in this lavishly illustrated guide to sacred wells in the borderlands between England and Wales. Phil Cope's journey takes him through centuries of history, from prehistoric times to modern day, as he explores the pagan and Christian significance of these wells. Alongside the stories of healing and magic, Cope delves into the Roman occupation and the development of commercial spas, revealing a complex and fascinating history that spans millennia. With each well, a unique tale emerges - of wronged suitors, magical horses, Dark Age battles, and decapitations, as well as the Christian saints who once tended to their healing waters. A beautifully illustrated book that showcases the enduring power of these sacred places, Borderlands is a fascinating exploration of the region's rich cultural heritage.
