All Hallow’s Holiday – The Well

What Ho, Wee Readers and Welcome to the first post of the All Hallow’s Holiday. Our first stop takes us to the village of Portsoy and yes we are in a graveyard. You may find it creepy but I find it thematic.

Built in the early part of the 7th Century – so it’s said – this well is covered by a stone cupola standing opposite the gravestones of Portsoy.

Said to be built near the sight of church dedicated to St. Columba this sight has an almost eery feel to it when you step past that stone arch and into the well beyond.

The well is replenished by a fresh water spring.

And kept hidden in an earth mound of possible ancient origins.

Well, that was our first stop now back onto the road towards our holiday cottage.
