Upwelling Water
Springs are where water wells up onto the surface from below. 
Some waters then flow away as becks, others have been got up as wells to serve as a local water supply. A spring might be named a well, perhaps because it once had a more serious water supply function? Also see the topic 'wells'; the distinction is blurred. | ||
