What is recorded here

Located towards the top of an E-facing slope. A well is marked on the 1839 and 1925 Eds of the OS 6-inch map and described as St. Mary’s Well in gothic lettering on both. A slight depression is evident in a pasture field. Compiled by: Michael Moore Date of upload: 11 February, 2014

Linked to St. Mary, the well is traditionally associated with healing and fertility, with historical references to its use in local Christian devotional practices. The well’s long-standing recognition in Ordnance Survey maps suggests a continuity of veneration from at least the early 19th century.
