At the bottom of the road, known for centuries as Ladywell Hill, just before the stream running under the road we find Busbridge Lakes on the left. A tall fence prevents trespassers, or even casual visitors from reaching the water – apparently fees are payable for fishing. From the map, it would appear that the well, or rather spring, is next to the fence, where the footpath leaves the road, and flowing water is visible through the fence.
Apparently the parish church of St. John the Baptist, Busbridge, contains a stained glass window showing Augustine baptising King Ethelbert and another of a pilgrim drinking from the spring, whilst on the hill above him the Minster Church may be seen.
