Holy Well or Sacred Spring in Nottinghamshire
This site associated with healing rheumatism arieses to fill a large pond, hence the name. It is found close to a footpath. There was probably a more ancient structure here because the water was supposedly culverted to the nearby manor. There is so evidence of this from old stones in the water.
