I suggest you take a careful walk down Green Street
I do quite often, I have friends that live in a tithe cottage near the farm (£1.50 PW)

That would be tapping into the undergound aquifer then , plenty of water there.
Wells on Green st have been capped since the houses were demolished in the 1960's.
There is even a deep well in Little Canada.
There is No source of water between the Ridgeway and Avebury except a dew pond on the hill and a seasonal pond in the farm yard.

If all such theories got was that kind of reaction then where would the Silbaby theory (Which also sounded stupid at first mention, to be honest) be now?
