Fonte de Santo António / Fonte do Bispo / Fonte dos Ingleses
Backboard fountain late mannerist in ashlar masonry, with a large bay centred in arch.
It was built in the middle of the XVIII century, being empty nowadays. There are written many names, most of them English, which indicates the periodic pilgrimage of foreigners to that spot.
