Full Description
Healing well situated in dense woodland. At the time of OS site visit in 1961 the area was dense woodland and no survey was possible. At or near the site were indications of a well but it had been filled in and only a shallow hollow was apparent. A dried up stream runs in an easterly direction from the hollow.
