Description

The remains of St Constantine's Well is a well house dedicated to St Constantine, dating from the medieval period, possibly the 14th century. It is constructed of stone rubble and has a rectangular plan with a small well sump located at the rear. The well house is low and features the remnants of a pointed stone vaulted roof. Inside, there is a pointed arched opening towards the rear, positioned over the well sump, with a niche above it. Nearby, several pieces of medieval tracery can be found. The well house was rediscovered in 1917 after being buried under seven feet of sand. In the mid-20th century, a shelter was erected over the well house.
