The garden that I mentioned yesterday, Beleura, has an extensive system of wells and water collection areas. This lovely metal cover for an old well made sure that children could not fall in!
This well seems to have a modern concrete and brick dome over the opening, and I'm not sure about the metal feature on top. Old or new?
Lots of iron chairs and tables dotted about the garden.
This wonderful copper dome with it's twining leaves and vines around it originally had a statue of Ceres as a feature in the middle. However vandalism forced the authorities to move the statue inside, along with a pair of Italian stone dogs which all now stand in the wonderful timbered entrance hallway to the house.
