Myths...Legends...History

Somerset County in England is an area in SouthWest England where you'll find rolling hills, wide open fields/flatlands and interesting little towns and cities. Because there's evidence that the area was populated waaaaay back in history (definitely pre-Roman and possibly even Paleolithic times), it is also an area where you'll find myths and legends.

Chalice Well is said to be the spot where a cup from the Last Supper was buried. The water from the well is constant and reported to be healthful, probably due to its high mineral content. The well itself is now surrounded by beautiful and peaceful gardens with mounds of roses and sprinklings of many flowers new to me. It's quite a place to unwind and "find yourself".
