The National Monuments Service's description
Marked on the 1839 and 1940 eds of the OS 6-inch map and described in gothic lettering as Lady’s Well on both. It is located on a NE-facing slope, in a recess on the N side of an E-W lane. This is a closed well with a pump-house nearby. There is no record that it was ever venerated and there is no evidence of veneration.
