Visit Notes

Sunday, 26th March 2006

This holy well is 100m south of the cathedral in a sloping, boggy field. The well itself is set into a modern housing and doesn't look very appealling. In front of it though is a small pond, which is presumably fed by the spring.

With the dappled sun falling upon it through the dense canopy above the pond is an idyllic little spot.
