| Description |
Aldhelm 3 died at a village in Somerset called Doulting, which he had once given to the monks of Glastonbury. The building where he died was a wooden church, to which he had himself carried as he was breathing his last. Later the church was rebuilt in stone. During its consecration a blind widow [Anonymous 10089] received sight. In this church there is a stone on which the saint sat when he was dying; many sick people are known to have been cured by means of water from its washing. |
