Chris - this is wonderful. There is no mention of Eluned's well that I can
find in Francis Jones.
You'd have to read Athene Reiss's book for the detail of her argument about
the identification of St Sunday with the Sunday Christ/Christ of the Trades
image as a warning against Sabbath breaking. She has a very poor photo of
the Gumfreston painting - no connection with the wells there that I know
of. Have we ever shown you the (much better) ones at Llangybi and
Michaelstone Escley?
