An ancient spring head at Linby, Nottinghamshire ... the cross (above it, but out of shot) was erected in the 14th century, but little is known about the history of the spring.

Happy Monday, everyone!
I've got a new piece of writing on my blog, if you're interested 😊
"Somewhere between remembrance and forgetting, we can meet, we can witness each other, me and these stones, these wells. Something is alive here, but it won't always be, and just possibly, it shouldn't."

Half-Forgotten Places? - 2ruth.blog
A recent peregrination, with an accomplice. St. Edith’s Well, so hidden by foliage and time that it took us half an hour to find, a rusty wrought iron grille barring entrance to the forbidden pool. The Wergin’s Stone, alone in a distant field, all but invisible from the road, caged in shiny angular metal. A […]
We did find St Edith's Well in the end ...and I haven't seen one quite like this before ... but, believe me, we had to battle through some foliage and then there was an iron grate in front of it ... so I couldn't strip off and immerse myself in the water 🤪

Tuesday, May 26, 2026 - Border wall construction damaging sacred sites » Native America Calling
Construction crews working on the wall on the U.S.-Mexico border in Arizona significantly damaged a 1,000-year-old geoglyph located in Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge. It's one of a number of places tribes on both sides of the border say are damaged or are threatened by the fast-tracked construction process. Tribal leaders say such desecration is happening at a record pace after the Trump administration sidelined cultural and environmental barriers to construction. We’ll hear from cultural historians and policy experts about that is being lost and what can be done about it.
Happy #doorsday 😊
Can't get enough of these beautiful old wooden doors ... this one from 15th Century St Stephen's Church in Old Radnor
Inside the church, it was cool and peaceful. Also quite beautiful in its simplicity.
Visited the church when I went to the well yesterday. Also, foraged some wild watercress from the stream on the way 😋

Indigenous leaders say US-Mexico border wall construction is ruining sacred sites
Indigenous leaders say that federal contractors are desecrating sacred Native American places and cultural sites at an unprecedented pace in the rush to build more walls on the U.S.-Mexico border. Construction accelerated after the U.S. Department of Homeland Security waived cultural and environmental laws. The action allows more barriers along the border even as illegal crossings have plummeted. The Trump administration says the border walls are needed for national security and are meant to keep people, including drug smugglers, from entering the U.S. illegally. Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” devoted over $46 billion to the effort.
