St Paternus's Well
Date Added: 8th Aug 2012
Site Type: Holy Well or Sacred Spring
Country: England (Cornwall)
Visited: Yes
St Paternus's Well submitted by KiwiBetsy on 25th Sep 2006. The well has been recently restored and rededicated and features extensively on notices and school projects in the church. We were able to follow a trail through grass to the well as it had been decorated by children from the local school a couple of days earlier. It seems a pity to keep such a fine well locked.
