044 According to tradition this well was resorted to by the country people on a certain day every year, when a draught of water was taken and silver or copper coins thrown into it - the performance of some religious rite. About 20 years ago when the present farmer of Middleton took the farm on lease he found, when clearing out the well, a quantity of silver and copper coins - thus confirming the tradition. It is still a fine well of pure water.
