6 – St Chad’s Well

Tucked away past Island House lies a lush green space with a remarkable monument at the centre of it: an obelisk above a spring. You’re looking at Saint Chad’s Well. Saint Chad is the patron saint of medicinal springs, and you’ll find springs all over the country bearing his name.
