The Search For The Well
When we first took over the building, the basement was a very damp and dreary place! Our very kind neighbours at the post office told us that at some stage we had a well. This is how the search for the well began. We researched old planning documents at the council that indicated approximately where the well used to be.
Further investigation with friends & a sledge hammer made a remarkeable discovery under 12 inches of damp concrete!
