Going to the Well - storytelling and crafts with Jane Mather
In past centuries people went to St Catherine’s ‘Oily Well’ for its healing properties and a good day out. Friends of Gracemount Mansion are reviving this tradition with storyteller Jane Mather.
Meet at 12.30pm at Gracemount Walled Garden for community lunch and craft activities, then walk the route of a legendary secret tunnel to the Balm Well at Toby Carvery.
Alternatively, meet at The Balm Well at 1.30pm for magical stories, heritage tales, and more fun! Access parking available at both venues. Enquiries to magicalnaturestories@gmail.com
