While hiking through the woods last weekend, I stumbled upon this oddity. It is a long-abandoned well, in the middle of the woods, forgotten by time. According to an historical aerial map of the area, the pump was once adjacent to a driveway connecting the road to a picnic grove. The driveway is long gone. Nearby, there are some recreational areas used for picnics, sports, and family gatherings. There is even a more modern pump down the road. Sadly, this one has been out of sight and out of mind for decades, rusting away and slowly being swallowed by wilderness.
