Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring
Country: Scotland (Moray)
Visited: Saw from a distance on 2nd Dec 2024
Burghead Holy Well submitted by KiwiBetsy on 11th Dec 2004. Burghead Well is hidden behind a very high stone wall in King Street, where it narrows to a footpath only.
Through gaps in a locked gate you can see a neatly mown, sloping, empty section and the stone steps that lead underground.

The Stone is a fragment of oolithic limestone and must have been brou...
