<< Previous Picture | Next Picture >>

The White Spring once flowed from the foot of the Tor into a tiny, pretty grotto like valley filled with white tufa deposit. It was destroyed and a reservoir building put in its place in the late 19th Century. It is a dark, damp miserable place despite having a cafe in it! The water can be collected free from this outlet in Wellhouse Lane or bought in bottles in town.
