Description
The Well House at the Manor House is a 19th-century structure located on the northeast side of Rickmansworth Road in Chorleywood. This timber building features a tiled roof and is designed as a square house supported by four posts with braces to the plates, which hold up a pyramidal roof. Inside, there are two internal posts that support a tie holding the winding gear. The well house is hand-operated by a handle connected to a large round wheel, which is now detached. This mechanism lowers an axle with a small cog wheel on one side that engages with a large upper cog wheel. The upper axle holds a central toothed wheel over which a lifting chain passes. Stone slabs cover the well. The building is incorrectly marked on the Ordnance Survey map as being on Chenies Road.
