Full Description
A spring well depicted on the OS 1st and 2nd edition map. Now converted into an open drinking trough. Name still known locally. The well was rediscoved some time before the NSA of 1845 when a workman digging a drain at the foot of the bank struck his pick into it, causing the water to re-issue. A well-preserved gold coin of James I was recovered and was in the Freefield collection in the 19th century.
