What's in their Houses..

One of the fascinating things I found in their seaside houses is the presence of a well and an indoor or outdoor swings.
The wells were used to bring up ground water for various uses, this happened in the past and it rarely continues to this day. You can still find the odd household which finds it more convenient to use ground water. Very traditional


The well which is almost always under a shed
The well is also covered with a heavy piece of round wood to protect family  members from falling 
must have swing
