What is recorded here

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Ffynnon Iago as Holy Well from the Unknown period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Ffynnon Iago is a holy well associated with Saint Iago (or Ia), a 6th-century Cornish saint traditionally linked to healing and protection. The well's name and location suggest a tradition of pilgrimage and water cure, common in early Christian Wales.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
