Full Description
Excavation of a trench revealed a stone built well of very good quality. It was oberserved that the structure was surrounded by stones at the level of the top of the natural sand. This may be indicating the top of the construction pit for the well. The fill of the construction pit was tightly packed with large stones as far down that the limited depth of excavation allowed. The well does seem to be very robust and high quality structure and at the time must have been expensive.
