St Winifred's Well, Woolston bank, Nr Oswestry, is a very rural picturesque quiet spot and site of an ancient well house over an even older stone basin.

The site is a quiet spot where the monks bearing the bones of St Winifred to Shrewsbury chose to rest overnight on their journey to Shrewsbury Abbey.
