Restored late-medieval well, comprising a small, gabled structure resembling a chapel, standing on a rounded platform with a flight of steps, all built of sandstone. It stands in a fenced and locked enclosure amidst the between-the-wars suburbia of Beaumont Crescent and Paxton Road. It has been a Grade II listed building since 1955. https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1076662 Though the well is now dry, it once supplied the western side of Coventry with water. It is occasionally opened to the public. https://www.ourwarwickshire.org.uk/content/article/st-catherines-well-coundon-coventry
