The Two Saints Way

A pilgrimage route between the cathedral cities of Chester and Lichfield

The Two Saints Way is a pilgrimage route through the heart of historic Mercia. In parts the landscape is much the same as Chad and Werburgh would have known it in Anglo-Saxon times; in other places, the route threads through industrial and urban architecture. At every point, there is a wealth of history, spirituality and natural beauty to savour and explore, and this guidebook presents that eloquently and informatively. Chad famously insisted on walking everywhere in Mercia; this book will make you understand why.

The Two Saints Way guide is beautifully presented, with a wonderful range of interesting and inspiring content.

There is a wealth of information in this new guide. On our pilgrimage, I learnt a great deal about areas which have been familiar to me for many years, but I had no idea of their rich history. Our group had a real sense of walking in the footsteps of St Chad and I would highly recommend both the Two Saints Way and the guidebook.
