San t-sreath seo tha Iagan MacNèill a’cur eòlas air an dùthaich agus an eachdraidh air Slighe Naoimh Chuithbeirt.

Chaidh an t-slighe taistealach ainmeachadh airson an Naomh Cuithbeart, a bha, san t-seachdamh linn, na mhanach, na aonaran, na fhear-leighis agus na easbuig. Tha i ruith fad trì fichead mìle sa dha eadar Maolros sna Crìochan far an deach e na òige dhan mhanachainn, gu eilean naomh Lindisfarne far cladach Northumbria, far an deach a thiodhlagadh an toiseach.

Tha Iagan a’tòiseachadh a’ phrògram seo ann am baile St Boswells, a’tadhal air Tobar a’ Chriostail agus a’coimhead Ceum an Aiseil, ri taobh Abhainn Tuaidh agus eaglais Maxton. Cluinnidh e cuideachd seann sgeulachd na tè ris an canadh iad Maid Lilliard.

Iagan MacNeil finds out about the landscape and history along the St Cuthbert’s Way. The 62-mile long pilgrims’ route, named after the 7th century hermit, healer and bishop, St Cuthbert, links Melrose Abbey in the Scottish Borders where Cuthbert began his religious life, with his original burial place on the Holy Island of Lindisfarne off the Northumbrian coast.

In this episode, Iagan starts in the village of St Boswells, visits the historic Crystal Well and Mule Gang by the Tweed and Maxton Kirk, and finds out more about the legend of Maid Lilliard.
