A NANO CACHE
This well is located by the road side to the east of Harpham village.
The well is dedicated to St John of Beverley and tradition has it that the saint was born in the village 640 AD and this well miraculously sprung up when he struck the earth with his staff.
The small stone built well house (apparently a grade 2 listed building) has the words "St John's Well" carved in the stonework above the door and on the domed top are the words "Rebuilt 1856".
Local tradition records that the well water had fertility benefits and was a useful cure for headaches or eye ailments, plus it also had a calming effect on wild animals!
JUST FOR FUN, CAN YOU PLEASE START YOUR LOGS WITH THE WORD – WELL.
