The iron spring

One of many blessings in living where we do (a carefully chosen location) is being just up the hill from a chalybeate spring.

Halfway down the hill is an area set aside for allotments (veggie gardens), and of course some gardeners use chemical pesticides and fertilisers. So we are meticulously careful to put all our spring water through a Berkey filter, to make sure it is good to drink.

We collect some every few days. If you put your sound on, you can hear the loveliness of the running water.
