Hob Uid: 1012584
Location : Northumberland Humshaugh
Grid Ref : NY9095070150
Summary : Structural remains of a well of uncertain date, though believed to be Roman.
More information : (Previously recorded as NY 97 SW 5.4) (NY 9095 7015) Roman Well (GSC) (1) Between Cilurnum and its cemetery is a well encircled with Roman masonry but now practically filled up. (2) The well is sealed by a modern iron covering. (3) The well is extant immediately outside the garden of Chesters. It is surrounded by an iron fence and boarded over. The masonry is, therefore, not visible but even if it is of Roman origin it may be re-used; the well is beyond the known extent of the Roman vicus. (4)
