What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Holy well known as St Ruan's Well, 160m south east of Bruggan Farm as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
St Ruan's Well is associated with St Ruan, a 6th-century Cornish saint and companion of St Piran, known for his role in early Christian missionary work in the southwest of England. The well may have been a site of pilgrimage and healing, with traditions of water cure and ritual use reflecting broader Celtic Christian practices.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
