WELL WELL

ST. JOHN’S WELL AT HARPHAM  . . . This well is located by the road side to the east of Harpham village, East Yorkshire, passed today on a 24 mile bike ride with T . . . new shorts not comfortable so by this point I needed a miracle !
Dedicated to St John of Beverley, the Minster town is 10 miles to the south. Tradition has it that the Saint was born in the village and this well miraculously sprung up when he struck the earth with his staff. It is still believed to possess the power of subduing the wildest and fiercest animals.
