The notice warning folk that the well/spring water if unfit for human consumption at th eSouthend well near the Columba's footprint it the very picture I need for my Dissetetion and as I am in Dundee it's a bit far to come. could some kind soul go and take a photo, with the sign clearly legable, and I will by you a drink. j.z.park@dundee.ac.uk

well done (excuse the pun) JD i knew you would be the man for the job with your trusted camera, i was getting worried no-one was going to do this. we can rely on you for a photo x

I would think that the only problem with the water is high nitrates which is not very good for pregnant women and wee bairns. but there is probably not much wrong with it, just council risk assesment gone mad. I find the signs a bit of an unnessesary eyesore. It will be used for an illustration of such sentements in my Disertation for the Geography department at Dundee. Once again thanks for the picture JD. JP

Just as a matter of interest, does anyone know if the water has been analysed and what the results were
