What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Ffynnon Saint as Holy Well from the Post Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Ffynnon Saint is a holy well traditionally associated with Saint Sant, a 6th-century Cornish saint linked to several sites in Wales and Cornwall. The well was historically visited for its supposed curative properties, particularly for eye ailments, and may have been the site of early Christian pilgrimage and local folklore.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
