Description
This holy well is close to the east of wall of the churchyard of St Michael's Church (NPRN 400451). In 1911 it was reportedly surrounded by a small building and was visited by people in poor health. Shortly before 1911, it was reputedly visited by a crippled girl from Glamorgan, who was able to walk away from it without her crutches.

The well basin was unearthed in 1975. Measurements are given as 6ft 3ins by 4ft 3ins. It is lined with single slate slabs.
