Notes: Formerly the site of a holy well. 'Stourbridge and its vicinity' by William Scott (1832) describes that 'adjoining the precincts of the borough, on the road to Hagley and Kidderminster, is Hasbury, famous in ancient times for a well, dedicated to St. Margaret. Some curious stone-work adjoining its margin, was removed, A. D. 1747, its waters form a rill tributary to the Stour'.
