The superlative St Milburga's Well at Stoke St Milborough. One of the best I have visited. It is situated in its own enclosure to the immediate adjacent west of the road which arcs to the east of the village.
The flow is the strongest I have observed on any holy well, coming through a pipe at the bottom of a flight of steps. A standpipe stands outside the enclosure, and with a turn of the knob, yields water.
