Description St Gundred's Well is difficult to locate, particulary at the moment (summer 2006) as the new A30 is being built, but in the future it will be easier to find as the new road is very near the well.
From Roche, drive right onto the A30 and a little further on the left is Demelza Road. Take this road, then on right you will find a path. Drive down this path until you come to the end to 'Higher Holywell Farm'. Here you will find a cottage; behind it is a gate, take the steps down. You will find the well in a stone surround on the left hand side.
St Gundred's Well was visited in the past by young women who threw bent pins into the well to foretell the future.
