St Ethelburga's Well at Lyminge
The nearby church of St Mary and St Ethelburga is one of the early shrines of Christianity in Kent. In 633 AD, Ethelburga, daughter of King Ethelbert and widow of the King of Northumbria, and Bishop Paulinus founded an abbey for men and women. Its last known charter survives and part of the original abbey survives in the present church.
The well situated along Well Road and above Tayne Field Recreation Ground is clearly ancient, although the housing is more modern. It emits a headstream of the Nail Bourne which flows through the recreation ground - see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4565507 Some more information can be seen at http://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=12861

Well house for Ethelburga's Well
The well house is on the site of a spring which is probably the main source of the river Nailbourne which flows through the Elham Valley. The canopy and chain pump were erected in 1898.

Turnstile at the top of the steps leading to Tayne field
It isn't obvious what the purpose of the turnstile is, there appears to be enough room to get a bicycle or even small motorcycle through the gap.
