| Hall Well (Tissington) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Derbyshire | Visited | 15th Jul 2021 | 4 | 4 | 5 | Hall Well, Tissington: We have been to Tissington before, on a Well Dressing weekend, a long, long time ago (about 38 years!), but because of the sheer number of visitors and really only interested in seeing the church, we took a quick look around only. This time, we walked round to see the wells i... Read More |

| Yew Tree Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Derbyshire | Visited | 16th Jul 2021 | 4 | 3 | 5 | Yew Tree Well, Tissington: The second well of the day. We walked down The Street from Hall Well (with the cafe to our right hand side and church to our left), turning left into Narlow Street. This well is almost at the entrance to the Candle Workshop, underneath a tall, but relatively young Yew Tree... Read More |

| Town Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Derbyshire | Visited | 16th Jul 2021 | 4 | 3 | 4 | Town Well, Tissington: Our third well out of the six in the village. From Yew Tree Well, we headed east along The Green, past the pond (which had very cute young ducklings being taught to swim by their parents). The well is just to your left hand side at the far side of the green. | 170 | 3 |
| Coffin Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Derbyshire | Visited | 16th Jul 2021 | 2 | 2 | 5 | Coffin Well, Tissington: Finding this well was pretty tricky, as even with the leaflet showing the location of all the wells in Tissington, we walked up and down, and down and up a lane called 'The Foot'. Eventually, I realised that whoever was in the cottage had parked their car right across the f... Read More |

| Children's Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Derbyshire | Visited | 16th Jul 2021 | 3 | 3 | 5 | Children's Well, Tissington: The fifth well we visited in the village, and easy to spot. Not recorded on HE or HERR. The basin within the well head was slightly muddy and dry, but looking over the dry stone wall, there is a boggy area of ground, which is where the water appears to rise, and a ston... Read More |

| Hands Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Derbyshire | Visited | 16th Jul 2021 | 3 | 3 | 5 | Hands Well, Tissington: The sixth, and final, well marked on the Tissington village leaflet map, and looked like a large, stone cotton-reel. As we approached it, some people were dipping their hands into the water. There was no flow of water into the basin, although the water appeared fresh and cl... Read More |

| All Saints (Bradbourne) | Ancient Cross | England | Derbyshire | Visited | 16th Jul 2021 | 3 | 4 | 4 | All Saints, Bradbourne: Our last visit of this holiday. We had a very 'interesting' journey to Bradbourne, as the police had closed off the main road and routed all traffic down some very minor, single track roads, in which traffic was trying to move in both directions, and not succeeding, which wa...
