Description

Sancreed Holy Well is a mysterious sacred spring with roots dating back to Celtic times (6th to 7th century). This historic monument impresses with its unique architecture with stone walls and slab roof.

A mystical atmosphere surrounds the place - according to ancient tradition, visitors still leave colorful ribbons (clooties) on a nearby tree, believing in their healing power. Next to the spring are the ruins of a small chapel or baptistery made of granite.

It's an ideal place for spiritual seekers and history buffs, offering a peaceful space for contemplation and connecting with the past.
