Holy Well or Sacred Spring in East Sussex

Ironspring is a couple of hundred yards to the southwest of the more impressive Ladyspring (q.v.). It appears as a somewhat overgrown, artificially-dammed pond emptying into the Broad Water lake and fed by waters which seep in from the slope above. The name suggests mineral content, but nothing is very obvious from the appearance of the water and there are no tell-tale red stains on the mud or undergrowth. The history of this site is unclear: it isn’t named on old or current Ordnance Survey maps.
