For Tylluan

All kinds of things hung on this tree... but judging from the amount of underwear I'd have guessed people were hoping for some pretty spectacular results.

As you can see, I managed to avoid the less savoury items...

That is so amazing - I would love to visit it one day! Rag trees were used traditionally in magical healing - is the site anywhere near the standing stones at Trellech - do you have any advice for finding the well, because I would really love to see it!

  No problem to find this Tylluan... I can pinpoint it and send you a mini-map. Bear with me....

  This map should work for you... I hope!
  
  Click the link for "larger map" and you should see directions between the M48 and Landogo Road. If you zoom in on point B and look in the field above you should see a horseshoe shaped structure by a hedge - look carefully... that's the well.

    Thanks Usky - sorry I didn't reply earlier but I've had a lot of problems getting pages to load.... I am definitely going to try and visit this place. Do you know there are similar raggedy trees (with accompanying wells) all over Europe, including Greece?

      No problem, I know BCUK has been having a hissy fit...
      
      I wasn't aware there were raggedy trees all over Europe, no. I've seen a couple here in the UK... and one very interesting spring that had offerings surrounding it.
