Dupath Well (Cornish: Fenton Hynsladron[1] Eng: 'Robber's Path') is a holy well house and chapel dedicated to St. Ethelred, constructed over a spring.

There are badly weathered pinnacles at each corner and a small bell turret with a highly elaborate canopy, possibly a later addition,[4] over the entrance.

[5] The small chapel-like building was probably built in about 1510 by the Augustinian canons of the nearby priory of St Germans, to whom the site belonged.

One grim tale associated with Dupath recounts that two Saxons – Colan (Cornish for heart or courage) and Gottlieb – fought a duel there for a lady’s hand.

But the maiden went unmarried: Colan was killed outright and Gottlieb fatally wounded, though some versions say he died later of ‘impatience’.
