More about this scene
Dating from the 7th century, and named after Winifride, or Gwenffrewi in Welsh, the holy well has been the site of pilgrimage ever since, and known as 'the Lourdes of Wales'. The waters are said to have amazing restorative powers, and Henry V came here to pray in 1415 before the Battle of Agincourt. The visitors here are probably not pilgrims, but merely appreciating one of the 'Seven Wonders of Wales'.
