Full Description
Well which supplied cottages at Lane Head before the installation of piped water. It is surrounded by a limestone wall. In 1973 the well was in poor condition. (1)
Comparison of historic and modern maps shows that the well has been moved some 7 metres to the west, probably as the result of road widening at the junction. (3)
