Bone Valley Well
Bone Valley Well submitted by Stonefly : As far as I can ascertain, this appears to be the site of this forgotten well. Not the best picture, but a combination of barbed wire, equally barbed shrubbery & inappropriate clothing prevented me from getting a better position. Largely overgrown in summer.
