This well house was recently covered in scaffolding and has now been fully restored as part of wider conservation work on Holy Island. This beautiful building was built in 1866 when the well was used as a municipal water supply. But it has history going further back - George Borrow - when on his travels round Cymru was told it was the best water in Wales. It has been referred to as the Witches Well and as the Fairies Well.
