The springs flow into small pools with a flint gravel and chalk substratum. The springs and pools create a home and habitat for a specialised cold water invertebrate community, with species that are rare in Hertfordshire.

The springs are tucked away in a hollow, right in the centre of the village.Ashwell springs can be accessed from Ashwell's High Street

The site is very important for flatworms Platyhelminthes, along with a range of more common species that are found Crenobia alpina and Polycelis felina which represent "glacial relict" populations. Aswell as the flatworms the most numerous invertebrate species are the shrimp Gammarus pulex, the tiny snail Potamopygus jenkinsi, larvae of the Caddis-fly (Trichoptera) Drusus annulatus and chironomid midge larvae. The scarce Caddis-fly Apatania muliebris and Plectrocnemia geniculata occur, the latter usually a species of more north western distribution. The stonefly (Plecoptera) Nemurella picteti is also present, a species typically found at stream sources.
