Description

Well head, mid-C18.

MATERIALS: ashlar, with some rustication.

DESCRIPTION: not inspected, information from other source. Situated within the north-east section of the park, it occupies a location that is easily visible on the near horizon to the bishops and their visitors approaching the castle along the main drive from Park Head. It takes the form of a pyramid standing about 2m high with grooved rustication. Its lowest course is cut in one with the flat coping of a square ashlar plinth, and there is a recessed band below the coping. There is blocked, small rectangular inspection place on the north-west face of the plinth, with an iron door or grill catch to its right side.
