Description
The well house, located 50 meters to the southwest of Lower Manaton, is a 17th-century structure, possibly built by Francis Manaton, who also rebuilt the nearby mansion in 1687. It is constructed of granite ashlar and features a granite segmental barrel vaulted roof. The building has a rectangular plan measuring 6 feet 8 inches by 4 feet 6 inches, with gable ends facing east and west. The west end has a rectangular opening with a hollow chamfered lintel and jambs, leading to an inner three-centered hollow chamfered arch. Water flows from a spring into a rectangular basin that is approximately 3 feet 9 inches deep.
