The Parish Council have addressed this many times - as it is actually in Southwick Parish we have been told to leave it; tried to get a grant for it, but nothing happened. Dreadful shame; a gentleman in the village, four or five years ago, started to tidy it up and was told to leave it alone, as he was trespassing, by a quite aggresive gamekeeper. My father was born in a cottage above the Spa (no longer in existence), and during droughts (yes, they had them 120 years ago as well) they used to drink the iron water; he made me try it, as a child and it was foul, tasted like ink! but apparently has incredible medicinal properties.
