002 A circular open temple supported by 10 columns, which enclose a Statue of Hygeia, placed in the centre of the building, this structure was erected in 1790, by the late Lord Gardenstone, in remembrance of the benefit derived by him from drinking of the mineral Spring which it encloses, The water is of as sulphureous nature and was long famed for its salubrious effects but of late its celebrity has much decreased. It is the property of William Lauder who is also the occupier, and receives one penny from each person before drinking of it, but for the same value they may drink or carry away as much as they like at that time.
