Holy Well or Sacred Spring in Devon
This well lies in the private house called Petersville which was built in the 1950s. At that time the well which was a stone lined structure was very overgrown and the present owner rebuilt it as a wishing well. Although it is a shame that the original structure was lost it is good to see that people will restore such sites and that is to be commended.
