Did you know?........ In medieval times, the monks at Worcester Cathedral sold little lead ampullae to pilgrims. These contained holy water. Each of these ampullae would have had the image of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Saint Wulfstan on them. The holy water was associated with having visited the shrine of Saint Wulfstan.
