What is recorded here
Lady Jean's Well still stands beside Blair Castle in Perth and Kinross, though no date or owner is recorded for the stone basin. Water may have filled it for centuries, drinking horses or washing hands of the people who lived under the castle's shadow. The name suggests a woman lived there, loved or feared, and the well kept her shape long after her footsteps disappeared.
