Mineral character
Calcium is 22 mg/L, magnesium 7 mg/L, sodium 76 mg/L, sulphate 22 mg/L, chloride 11 mg/L, and bicarbonate 268 mg/L. Hardness is 84 mg/L as CaCO₃. The most notable feature of this profile is the sodium level at 76 mg/L, which is significantly above most UK spring waters and approaches the threshold at which sodium becomes a consideration for sodium-restricted diets. Despite the elevated sodium, the water is soft by hardness measures: the dominant anion is bicarbonate.
