Description

WB- A post-medieval barrel-lined pit with surviving timbers and measuring 1.9m across by 1.1m deep was observed. The fill was a mixture of ash and clinker and had been disturbed by a later storm water drain. The well was provisionally interpreted as being of Civil War date and associated with the sconce but no dating evidence was obtained to confirm this.
