The Lady's Well (Oxfordshire) submitted by DavidCWoods : SP374148 Accessed through Willcote Grange, followed the footpath due south-east. The well is about half a mile downhill, approached through an avenue of ash trees. Many are hollow, some have been replanted. (Vote or comment on this photo)

The Lady's Well (Oxfordshire) submitted by DavidCWoods : SP374148 View down into the well. Although noted as The Lady's Well, the next property is Bridewell Farm. The path from the Grange has a slight kink; if the line of the path uphill is extended on the map, it appears to pass through St Peters church at the top of the hill. (Vote or comment on this photo)
