That answer requires a bit of explanation.  Yes, but not the way you'd think.

The "old well" exterior covers an artesian well that's at least 200 and might be 400 feet deep.   A few years ago these well heads would have been in a pit in the ground, with a protective cover plate maybe covered in grass.  The authorities decided this wasn't good enough so all these well heads have to be at least two feed above ground.  They're kind of unsightly, and most people disguise them with plantings, this is the only one I know of that's disguised as a well.  Needless to say  new surface wells are illegal here, old surface wells are grandfathered in.

A very pleasant scene. Is the well operational?
