Two Saints Way

Two Saints Way

A mediaeval pilgrimage route between Chester and Lichfield

Follow in the footsteps of Pilgrims who, in the Middle Ages, travelled the 92-mile route between the cathedral cities of Chester and Lichfield. Some of those pilgrims would have been Irish since Chester was the main port for those in the northern half of the island, so the favoured route to Canterbury, or even to Rome or Jerusalem, would have included visiting the shrines of St Werburgh at Chester, St Wulfad in Stone and St Chad here in Lichfield.

Mediaeval pilgrims set off in search of healing, forgiveness or courage to face life's difficulties and some were looking for adventure. These days people take pilgrimage walks for many reasons; a break from the demands of everyday life, with time to think and reflect. Some people are motivated by faith and others walk to practice mindfulness. Whatever the motivation, all walkers of the anyone can benefit from the experience of pilgrimage - a route through countryside, towns and the cathedral cities of Chesthire and Staffordshire along route.
