| Rhiwiau Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Wales | Powys | Visited | 16th Feb 2025 | 4 | 4 | 5 | This well is on private property. The owners very kindly let me have a look. It’s a nice well with 13 steps going down in to the clear water. The owners very kindly commented that he thought it was Roman and may have been used for baptisms. | ||
| Maen-Du Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Wales | Powys | Visited | 31st Oct 2024 | 5 | 4 | 5 | Nice well, well maintained with great access. Pity about the litter floating in the lower pool though. | ||
| St Meilig’s Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Wales | Powys | Visited | 30th Oct 2024 | 4 | 5 | 4 | To find this well you take the turning marked “mill cottages” off the A438. Carry on up this road. St Meilig’s church will be on your right over a small bridge over a stream. Carry on up “mill cottages” a bit past a few houses and you will see a gap between the houses to the left (West) go... Read More |

| Cleopatra's Needle (London) | Marker Stone | England | Greater London | Visited | 1st Jan 2000 | 5 | 5 | 5 | A wonderful site. A great place to watch the traffic on the Thames go by. Some very interesting vibes from the needle. | ||
| St. Mary's Well (Compton) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Surrey | Visited | 19th Mar 2022 | 3 | 4 | 3 | It’s a shame this site has not been better preserved. There is no access inside the cave. | ||
| Aberedw Spring | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Wales | Powys | Visited | 1st Mar 2024 | 5 | 4 | 5 | Easy to get to. | ||
| St Steffan Church | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Wales | Powys | Visited | 17th Aug 2024 | 4 | 4 | 4 | A nice peaceful church in the middle of nowhere. The well is overgrown and care should be taken not to fall in it. | ||
| St Piran's Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Cornwall | Visited | 28th Aug 2024 | 5 | 5 | 4 | Walking down the road from church towards cricket ground. Turn left through turnstile. Narrow overgrown path emerges on to small road and well is down steps on left at the back of a private garden. Very atmospheric. | ||
| Trevornick Farm | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Cornwall | Visited | 28th Aug 2024 | 5 | 4 | 4 | Interesting walk round the golf course dodging golf balls to find it. It had been raining for several days so the area of the spring itself through the arch was very water logged. Nice building. | ||

| St Mathew's Church Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Wales | Powys | Visited | 18th Feb 2023 | 2 | 2 | 4 | A rather disappointing site, it’s been capped with concrete and a modern drain cover. The water trickles out in to an overgrown marshy area. The church is worth a visit though. Very interesting leper’s squint. | ||
| Holy Well (Blakemere) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Herefordshire | Visited | 1st Jan 2023 | 3 | 2 | 5 | The site is on private land, essentially in someone’s front garden. You can see it over the fence but cannot get right up to it due to the setting. | ||

| The Golden Well (Dorstone) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Herefordshire | Visited | 31st Dec 2022 | 1 | 4 | 4 | The wood has been cut down resulting in new undergrowth over marshy ground. Quite difficult to find but it’s still there | ||
