Goat Spring
Location: Up a short gullet on the left by red brick cottages in Holywell Road.
Grid Reference: SO77114151

Said to have been named after goats that grazed here, this underground slate tank is above Holywell Road in Malvern Wells, up a track beside the private house called 'the Skerries', which it once supplied. In 2000 the MSA drew up designs for a bronze goat's head spout to be installed in front of the tank, but in 2001 it was unexpectedly capped off by MHD Council with a brick and iron cover, so our plans had to be abandoned.
