    The grid reference given is to a lighthouse in the middle of the sea off St Piere. (4figure grid given when perhaps 6figures needed to locate properly)

    I suspect the reference should be to the Saints Well by the roadside at Mathern ST523912. This though in the shadow of a motorway bridge has great atmosphere, as does the whole Caldicot Levels

    Dedicated to Saint Tewdric, this is a well with strong energy, though scant flow and little-known. Tewdric's body is interred under a slab in the nearby church.
