Description
SJ 56 SE RUSHTON LOWER LANE
1/101 The Village Well
GV II
The Village Well, circa 1800 with earlier origins and later alterations. A red sandstone cave-like chamber set into a wall at Lower Lane Carriageway level. The well has a flat stone threshold slab and the chamber is now fronted by a door for protection, for it was last used in 1940. Due to the slope of Lower Lane the well chamber is below the level of the village green and Eaton Road. It is east of the village stocks and smithy in a central village position.
