That is on the green plaque to the left. This is only accessible by going through the building in Blackburn, UK, where we are doing a short term rental. It is a level below the car park and the only other way in and out is through a locked gate underneath the road on a path to a Morrisons.

So only residents can make the pilgrimage now and the only healing that was being done was by me going down there in the first place to use a certain only semi-legal thing I do for medical reasons.

    Looks like a lovely place to relax after a long day asking people for heroin money.

      Overall, it’s not like this. Quite nice, really. Now Audley… what a shithole. Had to walk up there to see a GP.

        Oh come on, you can’t mention shitholes without including Shad and Whitebirk, surely? Admittedly, it has been donkeys years since I last set foot in Blackburn.

          I have not had the pleasure of Shad and Whitebirk yet.

    Wow. I have been doing a lot of reading about ancient Britain and exactly these kinds of places. In one respect, it’s amazing that there is even that plaque, and it really speaks to the importance these wells had. In the other, of course… gestures to everything in the picture but the plaque

    Thank you for sharing.
