Description

Gumfreyston Wells is a group of natural springs featuring carefully formed stonework around each well. There are three shallow wells, whose water flows together into one stream that exits the churchyard to the south. The stonework simply confines the wells and the channel through which the water runs; there is no superstructure. The water from the well closest to the church was described by Gosse as pure spring-water, while the other two are of chalybeate type, meaning they are impregnated with iron and are exceptionally soft and naturally sparkling, with red sediment and occasional eruptions of gas.
