The first site you encounter when coming up the hill from the village to the monastic site is this well. A wrought iron archway marks the entrance with ‘HOLY WELL’ written across the top of it. A short path takes you to the well, which is nestled into the base of a tree. The tree is adorned with many offerings and prayers.
It’s difficult to get to the water in the well (it would be almost impossible for a whole flock of pilgrims to get a taste in a reasonable time), but fear not! There are two handy taps from which to get a taste of this sweet water.
This well is the final stop on the pattern. The stones at the entrance are, like the other stops, heavily scored with crosses.
