Tuttons Well

A short walk from where I live brings me to a place that most folk would just walk past but has a bit of interesting history - in fairness the whole area is steeped in history going back to the Iron Age and quite a few tales of smuggling and battles with custom officers - but I digress.

The water from Tutton's Well was recognised as having unusual purity with medicinal properties as it contains a wide range of important minerals. In medieval times it was transported around the UK as a cure for many ills and was known as the "Christchurch Elixir".

Please excuse the long shadows in the picture but I give to you: "Tutton's Well".
