This well can be found dead opposite Birchington Roundabout and is only just about inside the bottom-left hand area of the square. The well's cup, so I'm told, was originally still attached to it, but perhaps somebody clambered over the low railings and stole it. The lantern at the top of the well is unlit at night, so perhaps it is more of an ornamental feature rather than an illuminator - I didn't look to see if there was still a lamp in it. This view was taken looking strictly north, more or less parallel with my shot of All Saints Church from Albion Road.
