Built of ashlar stone, set within and slightly forward of the battered dry stone retaining wall for the road embankment. Rectangular on plan, with the arched well recess facing E; a 2-centred arch in a Gothic style with wave moulding between fillets, dying into the chamfered jambs which terminate at the bottom with cut stops. The top of the wellhouse consists of 5 offset chamfered courses, hipped at the front, the sides running back into the embankment. The well opening is 62 cm wide, 110 cm high and 86 cm deep, clear water still wells up through the floor.
