There's an easily accessible one on the outskirts of Stroud in Gloucestershire. Let me know if you want details. Does anyone know of one near Edinburgh please? :-) Judy www.rawinscotland.com

It's in the grounds of Hawkwood College, a very nice college which hosts residential workshops and day workshops for local people. Best to contact the college and ask for permission. I think there's a box for donations or you could give one anyway, which is fair enough since they make it easy to access the water and are keeping up organic gardens and farm as well as providing a very nourishing environment for learning. I hope that's helpful.

warm wishes,

Judy

there's a great one in shining cliff woods, between whatstandwell and ambergate train stations, but on the other side of the river derwent, best access from ambergate (derbyshire). the woods are amazing, they were purchased in the 30s to provide homes and employment for unemployed people, who lived and worked the woods with their families. now it is all open access and lots of walking paths etc, very beautiful. there are two springs as i recall, one near the ambergate side, and one more towards whatstandwell. old stone troughs, but amazing clear beautiful water. wish i lived near there. i'm currently looking for a spring close to where i live (near ludlow/knighton on the welsh/shropshire/herefordshire border).
