Our first talk of the 2024-25 year is Pagan Beneath the Surface: Welsh Sacred Wells, in which Mike Farnworth traces the tradition of sacred wells from Roman and pre-Roman times to the present day, showing how Celtic pagan sites were taken over by the church and dedicated to saints, and how, at the same time the folk traditions at these wells continued largely unchanged. Some superstitious rituals still continued when people came to spas to “take the waters”.

Everybody is welcome to the talk at Earlsdon Park Village Hall at 7.30pm on Friday 20th September.

Cambrian Society Members £5, non-members £6. Pay on the door.
