    nice walk from st gwenfaen church to the well

      April 18, 2023

      St Gwenfaen is an early medieval holy well in the south west of Holy Island, Anglesey, named after St Gwenfaen, whose cloister was nearby. The site includes substantial remains of a building and is both a scheduled monument and a Grade II listed building. Traditionally, a gift of two white quartz pebbles thrown into the pool can cure mental health problems.

        Hard to miss when you walk along the main path. You will walk straight past it before arriving at the big cliff.
