Position of old water supply well, Sutherland
A concrete marker post with stone slabs covering a small chamber in the ground on a hillside in the Scottish Highlands. This is one of several nearby on this hillside, which collect water from natural springs to provide a supply to the fountains of Dunrobin Castle gardens some 2 miles away on the east coast. These features are marked on the OS 1:25,000 scale mapping as wells.
