Description
Summary:A photo of the Russell property well interior, zoomed in. You can see that further down the shaft the shape of the well was originally squared, and the circular addition came afterwards. The water is clearly visible, as well as a pipe. Linda informed us that she had the water tested in 1986 and that is was clean, however has never used it herself. She also said a cab driver once told her of a memory he had of the house approximately 60 years ago being faised for a foundation and workmen dangling their feet into the water of the well. It is possible the shaft shape change occured during this construction.
