What is recorded here
Well, built c. 1860, now disused. Segmental-headed opening, cut limestone trough, painted lead spout. Set in lime-washed random coursed wall to side of street.
Dedicated to Maggie Murphy, this disused well makes a highly interesting piece of street furniture. The stonework is skillfully executed while its survival serves as a memento of a time when water was obtained from a communal source.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
