Statement of Significance
Another early example of the importance of water supplies for the area and a very good example of this type of construction. Another well of the same construction but not in as good condition is the Welbungin Well built in the water course which comes from Welbungin Hill. On private property in the same area, an early farmer built several wells of this type and some of them are still in quite good condition.
Physical Description
Circular water storage well, built of dry rock walling on the bank of a water course. Approximately six metres deep, permanent water supply.
