Description

Langley Well, located to the east of Grove Farm, is a well or reservoir built in the late 18th century for the Lascelles family of Harewood House. The structure features coursed stone and ashlar with stone slate roofs. Its rectangular outer wall stands 4 metres high, topped with rounded coping and a single doorway that has a 20th-century plank door. Inside, there is a rectangular ashlar reservoir with a small access doorway at one gable end and a circular window at the opposite end. The gables are coped, and the roof has a shallow pitch covered with stone slates. The interior has plain stone walls and a shallow segmental arched stone vault. This well or reservoir was likely constructed to supply water to Harewood House.
