Until yesterday, Barnet was a name on the underground map to me. I had come from Surrey to pick up a car part I had bought on the internet. Passing by Well Approach I couldn't believe my eyes! It was as if the building I saw had been trapped in a time warp from Tudor times! I was surprised there was absolutely no information to indicate was it was (although the clue was in the surrounding road names) and I was sad to see the state of disrepair.
I now understand that it is an ancient well, and that the original building has been replaced at least twice. Nevertheless, the current once pretty building would justifiably merit repairs and upkeep, and the historical significance of the site preserved.
Come on Barnet council!
