In
St Ives there is an old well (spring) called “St Ia's Well”. It
provided water for a St Ives neighbourhood, Downalong, until the year
1843. There is a feast day in St Ives in February, St Ives Feast, to
commemorate the consecration of the church of St Ia the Virgin in
1434. There is a game of hurling. The little silver ball is blessed
with water from the well. There is a chase and contest around the
town. This year artist Allard Van Hoorn (from the Netherlands) came
again in June to recreate the journey of the ball through the town –
with a huge silver ball. He made sound recordings (all the noise of
the town and the harbour) and turned them into music – number 63
Urban Songline. You can see the ball and hear the music in the Tate
now.
