Location – A short distance away from the main complex next to a row of abandoned and ruined houses. It is across the river that runs behind the site to the E.
Description and History – This is the most fantastic holy well that I’ve visited so far. I want to revisit this site as I am very disappointed with the pictures I took on that day. The well is in a small stone structure and is fed from an unusual reservoir to the rear which contains a lot of quartz stone. The water runs through two outlets (only one functioning) cut into large sand coloured stones. The left inlet runs into a small font like stone and then onto the ground when it zig-zags its way out of the entrance which is very narrow. It is a beautiful structure and a pleasure to visit.
Difficulty – Easy to find but it can be very slippery inside the well house.
The front of the well-house. The entrance is very narrow.

The reservoir that feeds the inlets. Note the large chunks of quartz at the bottom.
The functioning inlet which pours into a little basin.
The non-functioning inlet. It doesn't look like it has been blocked for long.
