Description
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.
Appraisal
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.
