Corks Lane Spring, Disley, Derbyshire

Water flows through a pipe that leads to a trough. It's located right next to Mudhurst Lane and behind the farm, which is at the junction of Old Buxton Road, and Mudhurst Lane.

This spring comes from Kerridge Ridge. The water is able to flow even in the most severe weather conditions. The water is pumped out through a pipe, and eventually falls into a tub that overflows into an iron bath. Recently, the bath has become clogged with silt. It could be cleaned by planting watercress in it. The pipe can supply water, which is good, but it is difficult to access.

Description
Once a shrine to pilgrims, it is now a fountain. It is situated at the foot of "The Slopes" overlooking "The Crescent". This is the focal point for the town’s annual wells dressing celebrations, which take place in July. Buxton spring water can be accessed at a constant 28° Celsius.
