This well is said to have sprung up during a thunderstorm when St David was born about 500 AD. Its waters are reputed to cure infirmities.
St Non's Well is a small but historically significant spring associated with the legendary birth of St David, Wales' patron saint, and is traditionally believed to have emerged during a thunderstorm. While not a dramatic waterfall in height, its cultural and religious associations with early Welsh Christianity make it a site of interest for its historical and spiritual significance.
