More from Avalon
















Top left is the actual well that was built in the 1600's and there is still sweet water at the bottom. Here we are standing on the cobble stone road that went through the village back then. On the bottom right is the wharf remnants that at that time went right up to the water for loading and unloading. On the bottom left is the privy that was located in the wharf building and it had automatic flushing twice a day as the tides came into it! In the middle is the pool as it was referred to but today it is much smaller and doesn't come up to the wharf area of the 1600's .
