Thats what i was looking for

I will check in the morning if the water is warm, if its 50c as advertised, i could start bottling and selling it myself with the craze for bottled water these days, i will suggest to my boss :-)

400ft deep, double tubed, my bosses didnt see this coming

The well and the spring (borehole) could be different altogether, i believe the old well (which well street gets its name from) could have been on the site of the old school, further towards park street, if our spring was bored mid 1800s at a depth of 400 foot, using copper pipe, wells...

I might need glasses because im struggling to make it out

If we could track down the full transcript i think it would make it a lot easier for me to explain to my boss in the morning to assess the situation, all info is good info

I did find the inscription on the tank in text somewhere before so i could read it, i cant find it now

It is right where it should be so what i have found is definetly the source of the digbeth spring, who put it there and when??

It has high pressure so i'd assume its not connected to any other outlet as it was capped (bodged over with concrete), so of it was going to spring up somewhere else after we close it then it would have already done so

We have found what looks like a large copper pipe surrounded by steel or iron, it could be one of these bore holes, if so 250/300 feet is very very deep for me to chase it down

Severn trent will be on site tomorrow to investigate and suggest further action, any further information i can gather on the bore hole/water source would be appreciated, the inscription on the tank for instance, somebody sent it to me before but i cant find it now

I will be trying to trace it and cap it tomorrow, there is a pump running overnight to keep the hole free from water

Very powerful flowing, if anybody wants to see then be quick, it may be gone tomorrow

We have a spring, right where it should be

Roughly yes

I pulled this old tank out of the area where the spring was, a while ago, its not big enough to be the tank from the spring though

The water wasnt that high when i left on friday . Interesting day for me tomorrow

By the look of it, these were rather large rooms/cellars BELOW ground level

Cellars, bunkers, drainage pipes,

In this picture, the wall running below the steps runs the length of the site, nearly in line with the divide of the opposite buildings, the bit of the wall you see here is topped with slate????
