What is recorded here
This spring well lies c. 2m to the S of a stream and immediately to the E of a natural fording point on it. It is horseshoe-shaped in plan (3m E-W; 2m N-S) and opens to the W. It is enclosed by a moss-covered stone wall which forms a revetment against the naturally rising ground to the E of it. It is possibly a holy well and may be associated with another holy well (GA114-066002-) across the stream c. 66m to the N. A children's burial ground lies c. 25m to the NW.
