Linked to Saint Menhen, a 6th-century Cornish saint, the holy well at Menheniot was traditionally visited for its supposed healing properties, particularly for skin ailments and eye complaints. Pilgrims would often collect water on specific feast days, and the site was associated with local folklore involving miraculous cures and protective charms.
