Well Dressings

In 2017, there were six:

• 1. Coldwell End Well Dressing in the churchyard of the Methodist Church
• 2. Bank Top Well on the south side of Main Street between Coldwell and the Farmyard pub
• 3. Holywell on Holywell Lane near its junction with Main Street
• 4. Fountain Well at the Fountain in Fountain Square. There are also a number of very small Well Dressing boards on the steps of the Fountain.
• 5. Reading Room Well in the churchyard of All Saints Church, against the north wall of the Church. The Well Dressing takes its name from its former location, at the Old Reading Room on the opposite side of Church Street
• 6. School Well Dressing outside All Saints CE Primary School, just east of All Saints Church

On occasions when a Flower Festival is held in All Saints Church on different dates from the main Well Dressing event, a Well Dressing board will often feature in the Church as part of the Festival.
