What is recorded here

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Ffynnon Elan as Holy Well from the Prehistoric period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Ffynnon Elan is a holy well associated with Saint Elan, a 6th-century Cornish saint known for his healing miracles. The well was traditionally visited for its curative properties, particularly for eye ailments, and is linked to a legend in which Saint Elan miraculously provided water during a time of drought.
