![The Forgotten Healing Well Hidden in Wiltshire. Riding My ICE Q Trike, Wiltshire’s Ancient Salt Hole
The local people used to drink the water from Salts hole and records go back to 1700 but for years out of memory before then it was used possibly as far back as Medieval times and before.
One local inhabitant by name Isaac Beasley, when in the 94th year of his age, and being still in possession of extraordinary powers of memory and great physical strength for his years, avowed that all his life he had been in the habit, when out of health, of drinking this water, and it was certain to put him right. He remembered his father took this water as a physic, and that large numbers of folks in his youthful days took the water from Salt’s Hole for all manner of diseases, and it mostly cured them.
Apparently the water doesnt taste salty as its name would suggest,
The water is described as Clear and bright, resembling ordinary spring water. There is scarcely any odour or taste whatever!
The Ancient Salt hole is located at OSGB36: geotagged! SU 084 906 [100m precision]
WGS84: 51:36.8554N 1:52.7875W
and is just off the Stoke Common lane about 300 meters West from Purton Stoke. The Forgotten Healing Well Hidden in Wiltshire. Riding My ICE Q Trike, Wiltshire’s Ancient Salt Hole](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/xjwefOoYtDc/mqdefault.jpg)
