Description
The Well of Saint Feock is a holy well head located in Feock, with medieval origins but remodelled in the late 19th to early 20th century. It features a brick protecting wall, with stone rubble against an earth bank, and includes a cast iron pump. The well is rectangular in shape with a curved corner to the southwest and is situated in the southwest corner of a U-shaped enclosure that opens to the north side (the road) and slopes down to the south and east. The well head is a low brick structure with a doorway on the east side, and it likely originally had a low-pitched boarded roof covered in scantle slate. The stone facing of the earth hedge to the south and east dates to the early to mid-19th century and consists of courses of vertically-set stones. The older walling to the west is irregular. Inside the well, there is rubble walling bedded in mortar, which may be medieval. The pump, located on the north side of the enclosure, has a fluted domed head with a finial, a turned and moulded barrel and shaft, and a fluted spout, along with a stone bucket stand.
