St Ambrose's Well is traditionally associated with St Ambrose of Milan, a 4th-century Christian bishop and Doctor of the Church, and is believed to have been a site of pilgrimage and healing. The well may have been venerated for its supposed curative properties, particularly for respiratory ailments, reflecting a common theme in British well folklore linked to saints.
