AJHL visited on 16th Feb 2023 - their rating: Cond: 5 Amb: 5 Access: 4 A beautiful spring with a nice atmosphere. The water was cold and sweet.

The spring was resorted to for those suffering from rheumatism and weak eyes and was even thought to be a suitable site to bottle. Fortunately this did not happen as the spring head is quite pleasant and is a much visited site. It emerges from under a rock and into small pool.
