Geocache Description:

A more traditional type of Cornish Well. Note the ribbons tied in the trees - for good luck.
Whilst here look in the field behind you - which when I was there had some odd looking cows - in fact very long necked wooly cows -Llamas... The cache is a few yards up the hill from the well.
The cache has been moved slightly due to the original having been chewed! and not my cachers to my knowledge

This set of seven Geocaches is based, if somewhat loosely on the seven “Holy” Wells in the area of the Kernow Kachers Christmas 2005 Bash. The wells are the seven closest to St Tudy - I have not been selective - They aren’t the seven prettiest wells or nicest wells - in fact they cover the complete range of Holy wells, including the good the bad and the ugly!

A word of warning - none of the caches are in or even close to any of the wells - some are a few yards away - others maybe the best part of a mile away.

The Cache is a large plastic jar, that originally held a Kilo of peach slices - yummm
