Hodur visited on 3rd Jun 2018 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 1 Access: 5 Terrible ambience as it's right next to a busy A road. The well itself is in decent condition although I'm sure this isn't its original state.
Access is easy, you can park literally metres from the Well.
An old well/spring now sadly dry and overgrown for most of the year. It is not too far from where remains where found of a Romano-British temple on Grimstock Hill.
I found the well from a photo on an old postcard.
