More about the book
The narrative explores the significance of a spring in Crudwell, known for its superior thirst-quenching properties compared to other waters. The author notes its slightly acidic taste and speculates on its mineral content. The town, a manor owned by Lord Lucas, derives its name from this well, with a suggestion that "Crudwell" may also refer to the process of turning milk into curds. This description intertwines local geography, historical ownership, and the unique qualities of the spring.
