Bell Heather House

Nestled on the eastern slopes of Stainland, Holywell Green has historic roots dating back to the Domesday Book, known then as a modest hamlet within the township of Stainland. Today, it’s a charming, semi-rural village that melds peaceful residential streets with deep local heritage. You’ll find small yet essential conveniences right on your doorstep—like a Nisa Local grocery store and launderette at the crossroads of Stainland Road and Chapel Street, plus a classic fish-and-chip shop nearby. Beyond daily amenities, the area offers lovely green space to explore. Shaw Park, once the garden of Brooklands House, is now a beloved public park featuring a playground, astroturf football pitch, a decorative lake, reed pond, follies, and wooded trails—ideal for leisurely strolls or family outings. For those drawn to local mystery and history, St Helen’s Well is a fascinating landmark. Though the original medieval well may have faded from view, a restored stone trough on Station Road marks its traditional spot. Intriguingly, some local historians suggest the actual spring is closer to Helen Hill Farm on Jagger Green Lane, where a still-flowing spring feeds a Victorian-era cistern.
