This is to the south of a bendy road (Rectory Rd?) between Albrighton and the A41. Leaving Albrighton, a lake will be on the right, followed by a left bend. Keep an eye out for two plaques with "Cuthbert" on them in the left hand wall, as the well is behind this wall. There is space to leave one car, mounting the pavement next to a recreational walk area. Walk a couple dozen feet south, and then turn left along the northern edge of a small pond. The well is on your left.
