Madron Well
The real Madron Holy Well, found by walking through thick mud. The water where the clouties are is just drainage for the real well and must not be confused with this well.

Marked on map with chapel, west of church up a little path, all signed. Dedicated to St Credan, a Irishman, who became a swineherd after accidentally killing his father. Died in 580AD, also dediacted at Creed nr Grampound. Many Celtic crosses in churchyard. It was 'a cold and frosty morning' on my visit... Just how I like it!

Sancreed Holy Well & Ancient Chapel
Sancreed Holy Well is down a path which is opposite to Sancreed church.
The well is Pagan and is from before Christianity was around. It got lost for hundreds of years under thickets until it was found by the vicar in the 19th century. Juliette Shanks, from Sancreed, looked after the well. She now has a plaque.
There is also a lot of ionizing radiation in the well. This is because of the granite. The water is also quite deep and is deeper than most holy wells.
People still come to the well sometimes to perform rituals. They will bath in the well and then pull of some of their shirt and hang it on the tree (but most of the bits of clothes on the tree are bought there by people who are just visiting).
Next to the well is a chapel. Inside the chapel there is a 15th century carved stone. The chapel is a small rectangle building that is ruined.
The Celtic Cross was put there in 1910.

Madron Holy Well and Celtic Chapel
Pagan Offerings at Madron Holy Well, and a visit to the Celtic Chapel.......
a short walk off the Road between Morvah and Modran, Cornwall, UK......
Sancreed Well Radiation
The high radiation coming from Sancreed Holy Well in Cornwall, a well famous for having a very high above background level of radiation.
The geiger counter was showing large and even dangerous (although it wouldn't hurt you unless you were actually living in the well) levels of radiation.
This high count is because Sancreed Well is a granite chamber with only one entrance. The steep steps make the well almost enclosed.
Many ancient sites in Penwith, especially the fogous, have a high radiation count. It's possible that these sites were purposely built in a place with a high radiation count, perhaps to give some sort of effect.

St Uny Graveyard and Church - Lelant - Cornwall
St Uny's church dates back to the 12th century, originally called St Euny's church, the present building whose features are mainly Norman is thought to be from the 15th century. It is thought that the church was rebuilt at a time when wind blown sand silted up the Hayle estuary and encroached on Lelant, the vicarage itself was buried in sand. A number of ancient Cornish crosses can be found in the graveyard.
In the 14th century, Lelant lost an estimated 40% of it's population with the Black Plague, many were buried in the church grounds.
Many 5th and 6th centuries Celtic missionaries arrived in numbers from Wales and Ireland, settled on the shores of Cornwall, and began converting small local groups of people to Christianity. Lelant church is dedicated to the Irish Saint St Euny or St Uny.
This church is a short walk from me, filmed in the day, I would not want to be there at night - very spooky, you can feel the history - amazing place. Blessings
