Beckett’s well is next to a main road in the centre of Northampton. It is a sadly neglected structure, although from a distance it looks OK. The housing for the well was built by the County Council in 1843 and restored in 1984, with murals based on children’s drawings. It is called Becket’s well because Thomas A Becket is supposed to have stopped there on his flight from his trial in Northampton castle.
It is now next to a main road in the city centre, and is difficult to photograph well without standing in the middle of a busy road, only advisable if you have a police escort. It’s best not to think too much about what is in the well, along with rubbish.
Something is not right. This message is just to keep things from messing up down the road
