Here is an alternative view of the well in Birchington village square, taken looking east-northeast in the direction of Margate from Canterbury Road (A28). Three roads meet here - Station Road ends just out of shot to the left after passing through Birchington village centre, Canterbury Road comes from behind me and cuts across the image and around the corner by the well and heads towards Margate, whilst Park Lane from Manston Airport ends just to my right. The road junction is at the bottom edge of square TR3069.

The pedestrian crossing is closed and traffic is queuing due to roadworks on the Canterbury Road.
