Site Number: C38
By Bruce Osborne and Cora Weaver (C) 2012
Area 4. West Malvern Springs and Wells
Malvern Hills, England
Location: on the south side of Harcourt Road.
Description: a spring flowing into an old white stoneware container.
This spring is used solely for animals and is typical of a rudimentary provision. In everyday language this means that it is an old half buried sink! However it is full of crystal clear spring water. To find it, look in the bank by the gas lamp on the left side of Harcourt Road as you walk downhill.
