Clootie Wells are a long standing tradition in Scotland. The waters of the wells are believed to be very beneficial to health. By dipping a strip of clothing from an afflicted person in the waters of the well and hanging them on a nearby tree the illness is to leave the person as the material deteriorates. On arrival Norma will create a wishing tree in Huntly’s Meadow Woods blessed with the waters of the well. tel: 01466 794494 I www.deveron-arts.com
