Selkirk. The Pant Well

On 2 sides of this building there is a drinking fountain. The Pant Well takes its name from the granite overflow trough (pant) which was added in 1715 and provided a water supply for animals.
I thought it was the market cross until I started looking closely at my photos.

An intriguing structure, Amelia. I'll admit I had to look this up on the net to see what it was about. :-)

Amelia replied to tiabunna:

It is in fact a well of sorts. George, not the market cross. I have amended my description.
