3 Physical description of well and its surroundings

Branigan records that “the site of Church Well is located under a field of tillage south-west of the graveyard ruined church of Ward Lower. The well was in use up until the 1970s for agricultural purposes, having formerly a pump and subsequently a manhole cover erected over it. There are not no surviving surface indications of the well, but it was located at the edge of the field to the rear of the third bungalow south of the graveyard” (Branigan 2012: 61).
