Menacuddle is a historic place, holy well and wooded area in St Austell, Cornwall.[1] It has a reputation for being haunted.[2] The holy well was built in the 15th century and restored by Admiral Sir Charles John Graves Sawles shortly after WWI in memory of his son who was killed in action.[3] It is a popular spot with ramblers.[4] Its name may be derived from 'Mena', which means sanctuary and a saint who is not now known, whom would have blessed the holy well when it was first consecrated.[5] It is a monument scheduled under the Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979, NHLE list number 1019163.[6]
