About MeSt John's Well stands in Albyn Place. The original site of St John's Well was mentioned in 1696, which was named from the fact that it stood on St John's Croft. It was of considerable local repute. A building was erected over it in 1852. In 1885 it was removed to another site, where virtually nothing was visible in 1952, and in 1955 it was moved to 24 Albyn Place where it takes the form of a U-plan of ashlar with seats.
