Patience is.....frustrating - but worth the effort - well done that chap Thanks chameleon. If the Pump was to bring up water I wonder if that was a reason why Crag Farm was sited there? I see there was a well nearby close to Adel Beck (that seems an odd place for a well being so near water). I shall have a look around some day to see if I can find the site (hoping not to fall in it!). There are several old wells recorded in the Alwoodley area, such as that at or very close to the children's playground near the King Lane/The Avenue junction. I hope it is 'well' sealed off!

Hopefully now I'm becoming a little more mobile, I'll be able to resurect the related threads to this too and extract the offerings from my friends Parkie and Phill amongst others, and get Mrs C to follow me on a lengthy excursion around all this
