Many neopagans regard this waterfall, St Nectan’s kieve, to be one of the holiest sites in the UK. It is close to the old seat of Dumnonia, Tintagel, which is associated with King Arthur but no Arthurian myth mentions this waterfall - however modern legends claim it has a connection to Merlin. In fact there is no literary or archaeological evidence that this was ever a sacred place for pagans. Even the claim that it was dedicated to Saint Nectan is a falsehood invented by the Victorians! The site was known as Nathan's Cave in 1799. Some claim there was a Celtic chapel there too but that is not proven either. While claims of ancient pagan and ancient Christian significance of the site are all unfounded - it cannot be denied that it is now holy to pagans who leave countless offerings of clouties and painted stones and carvings. Certainly there was an old folkloric belief in Britain that naturally forming holes had magical qualities and since this 60ft waterfall flows right through a hole, it would be reasonable to assume, without evidence that it was regarded as magical to local folk in pagan times and beyond. From my perspective a grove need not have been declared sacred in antiquity to be recognised as such now - the reason so many accept the claim that the glen is sacred is simply because it feels like it is and that is all that is needed for pagans of any era. #paganism #clouties #stnectansglen #celticmythology #witchcraft #kernow (at St Nectans Waterfalls) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0RS5IGghw2/?igshid=1ji0ls51fch25

Tradition withers
The tradition of tying pieces of cloth to a tree, especially when it grows close to a holy or healing well, is an ancient one. The strips of cloth are usually called clouties (or clooties). They were once strips of fabric, dipped in the water of the well and tied to the tree.…
