taken 16 years ago, near to Heaton, Newcastle Upon Tyne, England

Ye Well of King John
Ye Well of King John
"The lintel bears the inscription 'Ye [olde] well of King John'. This inscription is of Victorian origin and is a typical piece of Victorian Hokum, the well having no connection with King John or the nearby ruins of the locally-called King John's Palace, although it is said that the stone trough of the well came from there." {Source: LinkExternal link (Archive LinkExternal link ) .} See NZ2665 : Ye Well of King John (2) and NZ2665 : Inscription on Ye Well of King John.
