Meon Valley Pilgrimage Trail
'The Meon Valley was one of the last places in England to hear about Jesus and the Christian Faith. Its villages were inhabited by Saxons and Jutes and Saint Wilfrid came to live among them from 681 – 686AD. The churches he founded remain alongside the River Meon and a "Pilgrimage Trail, In the Steps of Saint Wilfrid" has been designed to encourage modern pilgrims and walkers to discover these churches for themselves – and, maybe, to learn something about the faith which motivated Wilfrid to leave his palace and live very humbly amongst these foreign settlers.'
