Hi Lindsey, I think our page here is a bit mixed-up, we have wells with the same name in different locations. Have a look here for starters, http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=17613
and check out this blog https://insearchofholywellsandhealingsprings.wordpress.com/tag/holy-well-blogs/
Have you had your well-water tested and do you drink it? If you find any information on wells that we don't already have, please let us know :-)

Hi, I was wondering if you know of any other wells in Ludlow, Holy or otherwise? I don't live far from St Julian's well but I know there are many wells in a small surrounding area, one of which is in our garden and I'd love to know more.

Many thanks,
Lindsey
