What is recorded here
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Holy Well, St Mary's Church, Pilleth as Holy Well from the Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Linked to St Mary, the holy well was traditionally associated with healing and was visited by locals seeking cures for ailments, particularly women's health issues. The well's medieval origins suggest a long-standing Christian devotion, possibly incorporating earlier pagan water cult traditions.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
