Cliff College has a full academic status in the present day, providing training for members of the Methodist Church. Its origins however, are rooted firmly in the past, with its benefactors, the GARDOM family - the previous owners of the land where the college was built. Further details of Cliff College - a History are provided on a separate web page.
An account of the Well is included in The Siddalls of Curbar.
