Description
The Well of St Guron, located approximately 1 metre west of the west end of the Church of St Petroc, is a well-head that likely dates back to the 15th century. It is constructed from dressed granite and features a dressed granite roof designed to resemble slate courses, complete with a roll-moulded ridge and a flared cross in relief on the front gable. The well has a small rectangular plan and includes a chamfered 4-centred arched doorway, which is fitted with a 20th-century latticed and scrolled wrought-iron door. Above the doorway, there is a carved panel that depicts St Guron kneeling in front of the well. According to tradition, St Guron established a hermitage in Bodmin in the 5th century.
