Holy well located in the Forgotten Garden of Lewtrenchard. A recently restored well house covers a spring which flows into a pool below. To get to the well, park in the car park for the Forgotten Garden of Lewtrenchard (next to the church) and walk through the garden following the stream. The well can be found near the top of the waterfall. The well house at the well today is not the original. The original was a lot longer and also had a statue of St Petroc.
