What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Ffynnon Lygad 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 Lygad is a holy well associated with Saint Lygad, a 6th-century Welsh saint known for his ascetic life and healing miracles. The well's name, meaning "Well of the Eye," may refer to its supposed efficacy in curing eye ailments, a common attribute of many Celtic holy wells.
