Hello, Eh up and how ya Didlin? In todays video we are Exploring Ancient springs and Holy wells of Leicestershire, mainly in North west Leicestershire and the outskirts of Loughborough for this one today. This is only part one, so keep your eyes out for part 2. Im facinated by water and where it comes from, and lets be honest, this day and age we have it easy in terms of where our water comes from...Out the tap!
But relatively speaking, it wasn't all that long ago, that we were walking down the road with buckets fetching the wet stuff from the village well.
And not only that, it wasn't always about drinking either, people would travel from miles around to bath in what were known as Holy wells, and you will see two Holy wells in todays video.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy it! Cheers, Steve X
