| Summary : The water supply for St Mary's Carmelite Friary was provided by a series of springs. One of the springs, located circa 40 metres north of Friary Cottage, is identified in local tradition as a holy well or wishing well and is marked on old editions of OS maps as Our Lady's Well. The spring lies in a waterlogged hollow and is surrounded by a submerged brick or masonry kerb forming a small rectangular cistern. |
