Description

This is a well located on Pointon Church Lane, dating from the 12th century, with later additions from the 19th and 20th centuries. It features fragments of limestone ashlar, rubble, and cobbles, along with some cement. The well has an oval plan and includes a central round well with an underwater stone culvert to the south. Surrounding the well is an oval cobbled area, also with some cement. The perimeter of the oval is marked by two ascending steps made of weathered architectural ashlar fragments. To the south, there is a rectangular 'plinth' that supports a traceried ashlar fragment. This well may be associated with the cult of St. Gilbert, whose Gilbertine abbey was located several hundred yards to the south.

Local climate

Well sits in a drier-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 720 mm of rain a year. This makes it drier than 82% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is lower than that of 86% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 33 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 54% of listed buildings. Of these, 16 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
