Had a trot over the moors from Baildon to Ilkley last night with a mate. He pointed out Horncliffe Well to me about a mile or so up from Bingley Road/Weecher. He assured me that it is safe to drink from. Does anybody know whether this is true or not ? He said he had a quick slurp on the last leg of the Bradford Millenium Way Relay on Sunday & suffered no ill effects ! I can report that the Ilkley Stout in Bar T'At, that I had later, is definitely safe to drink.
its a well known drinking spot,used many times.
do you know there actually was a school there many years ago!
believe there was only a handfull of pupils.
hard to believe i know.
it was mentioned in a book on the history of bingley
A school ? Wow, that is very hard to believe !! I'll be having a slurp from it over summer, that's for sure !
Have you visited the Stanza stones yet?

I must have run past that well on Sunday on the MWR but I was trying not to cry so didn't see it.
