NY6813 : Well, Gt Asby

taken 19 years ago, near to Great Asby, Cumbria, England

Well, Gt Asby.
Well, Gt Asby.
This is not really a well - it's a rising for waters which fall on the surrounding limestone hills. There is a direct dye-traced link with the water found in the far reaches of Pate Hole, a cave 1.5km to the south. Only in very wet weather does water flow out of Pate Hole and down the usually dry valley which leads to this well. It is rumoured never to have run dry.
