In the woodland to the south east of Mount Grace Priory is the conduit head known as St John's Well. Above a circular tank the well head has a pyramidal roof and small wooden door. It supplied water to an octagonal conduit in the centre of the great cloister at the priory, from which lead pipes carried the water to the cells and other buildings.
