Well in Greatdown

Well

What is recorded here

Situated in a low-lying boggy area of pasture, which is cut by a deep drain. Not depicted on OS historic mapping, although a well symbol is depicted c. 20m to NNE on the 1837 OS 6-inch map. Levelled monument described in 1983 as no surface remains visible. No well visible today on Digital Globe aerial photography. The classification of this site is uncertain as there is a note in the SMR file which suggests that there may have been a Man-made underground passage marked 'in pencil' at this location on the Ordnance Survey field map (SMR File).
