Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Thurso: Meadow Well A helpful notice visible through the window states:
The Meadow Well was for centuries Thurso's main water supply. In 1818 the cistern was enlarged and the casing was completed in 1823 as the date on the finial shows. The present pump was installed around 1850 and was used up to the 1920s to fill water carriers to damp down street dust. The Well was more than a source of water, it was the meeting place for the Townsfolk, for talk and for the exchange of local news. |
