Old Spa Well

Description
The well is located on the main street of this village, approximately one mile from Scotch Corner (A1). It has a large frontage, and water is constantly flowing down the street when I visited. According to what I've been told, it does so every time. Although the water is pleasant, it seems to be very high in ninerals. In an out-of print book on holy wells, the water is listed as a Holy' well.

This well is located near Gainford and is considered a holy one. Legend has it that St. Cuthbert's remains were found at Gainford by the bearers. It is accessible via a path at the back of St. Cuthbert's church on the village Green. It's located at the start of the Gainford Millennium Green Photo Trail.

This is a sulphurous, but still drinkable spring that can be found off the A67 in Gainford. It can be found on a road that runs along a lay-by. The water is amazing!
