Just in front of the small building a small group of people are gathered at St Annes Well, still a source of fresh warm free Buxton Water. The small building (now vacant) was a pump room to send the spring water up to the last NHS hospital to supply mineral baths (now a University campus). The spring is across the road partly under the Old Hall Hotel and the water is currently piped up to new plant near the railway station for bottling, with some water returned here. Some Buxton Wateris also used in the swimming pool - naturally preheated water- truly a mineral baths.
