Goodmanham, Yorkshire Beggars Bush Well ?
One of three named wells in Goodmanham, the others being Lady Well, and St Helen’s Well. Marked on OS map, beside an old green track, which follows the path of the Wold’s Way. The water issues from the slope and suns over a sandy bed to a nearby stream. No signs of stones or steps. “There is an old and venerable bush on the bank above but why it was called Beggars Bush no-one seems to know”.
