This spring on the flood plain of the Kings River in Callan carries none of that. Despite its name and its proximity to a medieval friary, there is no recorded evidence of veneration here, no pilgrimage tradition, no pattern day. It is simply a clear spring, walled in stone, doing what it has always done: collecting, then releasing its water southward toward the river.

The well sits roughly sixty metres south of the Augustinian friary of Callan, a house of the mendicant Augustinian order founded in the medieval period, and the relationship between the two is suggested rather than proven. The most intriguing detail is the limestone gutter-spout set at the entrance to the walled enclosure, over which the outflowing water passes. This carved spout may have originated in the friary itself, repurposed at some point and set into the well's stonework. Whether it was salvaged after suppression or moved earlier, nobody can say with certainty. The enclosure is modest in scale, three metres by just over four and a half, with an opening on its southern side, and the whole arrangement sits on flat ground that would have flooded regularly, fed by a spring that clearly predates any formal record of it.

The 6-inch Ordnance Survey map names it plainly as St. Augustine's Well, which tells you something about how the name survived even as any ritual use faded. The Kings River runs about thirty-five metres to the south, close enough that the well's overflow joins it quickly. Visitors exploring the Augustinian friary nearby may not realise this small walled spring exists at all, tucked into the low-lying ground between the friary precinct and the riverbank.
