The Star Well is just off a minor road running from Allington to Corsham between the A420 and A4 just outside Chippenham. Apparently it is possible to find small star shaped stones at the point wher the water emerges from the spring.
I have been there a few times but haven't managed to find anything.
Approx Grid Reference ST880727

There was a write up about it in the local paper, I will see if I can find it.
