  • Pilgrimage to Binsey: Medieval and Modern
    Binsey: Oxford’s Holy Place edited by Lydia Carr, Russell Dewhurst and Martin Henig Archaeopress 2014, pages 81-88 PILGRIMAGE TO BINSEY: MEDIEVAL AND MODERN LYDIA CARR Binsey’s holy well, with its literary and spiritual overtones, represents a key attraction of the little church for the modern visitor. In this brief essay, the broad history of pilgrimage in England is considered before approaching Binsey’s own post-Reformation history. Others have dealt with the history of St Margaret’s Well authoritatively in this volume; little of value can be added here to these excellent historical and archaeological syntheses. PILGRIMAGE IN ENGLAND: SACRED SPRINGS The attitude of the present English church towards holy wells is a peculiar one. Where other nations attempted to ‘reform’ away all trace of superstitious water, or else ‘Lourdize’ springs into a holy business enterprise, England’s wells still remain under the radar for many sections of her national church. The suspicious whiff of Popery or rural ignorance that hung about such waters was dealt with in the past by dismissing it as superstition, or by transforming wells into semi-medical spas as at Bath and Harrogate. Traces, where they remained, of a more spiritual aspect to the ‘cure’ were discouraged. It is typical of the Anglican Church’s desire to avoid extremes whenever possible, and of its dry urbanity when faced with enthusiasm. This distaste does not necessarily represent a lack of faith, but a discomfort with its public expression.1 Matters were different prior to the Reformation. Pilgrimages were a popular activity in medieval England, whether they took the traveller to Jerusalem or to Canterbury.
