  The ancient holy wells of the British Isles are amongst the most beautiful and magical places anyone can visit. Often untouched by all but the most delicate human hands, and located in some of the most secret nooks and crannies of the country, their stories evoke a lost world of pagan gods, healing forces, second sight and holy visions. This beautiful book, illustrated throughout by the author, tells the story of the holy waters of the British Isles through hand-picked examples. It also contains a county-by-county gazeteer.
