Description

The structure is a wall attached to the southwest corner of Marwell Hall, featuring a well house, dating from around 1816. It is constructed of flint with brick bands and strips, topped with moulded brick coping. The wall extends 100 meters at right angles to the entrance front. At the far end, away from the house, there are brick gate piers on a spur wall. These piers are wide and rectangular, adorned with diamond brick finials and topped by gablets. Near the house, connected by a spur wall, is an octagonal well house that stands 1½ storeys high. Each side of the well house has a flat pointed arch to a panel on the ground floor, with a 3-centred arch to the panel above. It features a moulded brick string course and eaves, along with a hipped roof. There are doors on opposite sides of the well house. Inside, there is a 19th-century beam engine installed over the well, made by Duke and Ochendon Engineers from Littlehampton and London.
