Editing ALVATIA: Ingsby - Green (section)

== The Well ==

In the northeast corner of the [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Green|green]], the [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Green#The_Well|well]] is surrounded by circle of dusty (in summer), frozen (in winter), or muddy (fall and spring) ground. In all these seasons, innumerable footprints lead to and from the [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Green#The_Well|well]]. In fall and spring, deep puddles form around it, and slowly drain to the north towards the pond. Ducks waddle and hunt for food in these puddles in the mornings.

The [[ALVATIA:_Ingsby_-_Green#The_Well|well]] has a small timber roof, supported by two upright beams; these also support the hoist and bucket. A stone wall, three feet high, prevents animals and children from falling into the well. The water surface is about ten feet down in the summer and fall; about five feet down in winter and spring.
