What is recorded here
Marked simply as a well on the 1839 and 1925 eds of the OS 6-inch map, and situated in a fold on a W-facing slope at the headwaters of a short NE-SW stream that joins the N-S Milltown stream, c. 350m to the SW. It is held locally to have been the original St. Anne's Well before the present well (WX018-011----) was established c. 1.8 km to the NNW. The well is now covered in. The church site (WX018-029001-) is c. 30m to the NE and the graveyard (WX019-016----) is c. 140m to the ESE.
