Winefride

Saint Winefride (called in her native Welsh: Gwenffrewi; in modern English Winifred and numerous variations) was a 7th-century Welsh Christian woman, around whom many historical legends have formed. A healing spring at the traditional site of her death is now a shrine and pilgrimage site called St Winefride's Well in Holywell, Flintshire, Wales known as the Lourdes of Wales.
