Holy Well or Sacred Spring in Surrey
An ancient spring which seems to have been revered in the past, but fell into disuse. The Waterslade farming area was extensively redeveloped and is now a bustling housing district. The spring has been marked with a brick wellhouse, and a stone plaque read Waterslade Spring, although this is now illegible. A square trough area has been dug into the earth surrounding the spring, but this was filled with detritus from the tree above on my visit. The spring had a small amount of standing water.
