What is recorded here

Depicted as an oval pond (dims. c 20m x c. 12m) on the 1840 and 1927 eds of the OS 6-inch map, but named as 'St Bridgid's Well' only on the 1927 ed. It supplied water to a nearby brewery until it closed in 1990. This is an oval pond (dims. c. 20m E-W; c. 15m N-S) surrounded by a stone wall and incorporating a fountain, but there is no indication that it was ever venerated. (Bradley et al. 1989, 41).
