If you are out and about in areas that you are not familiar with please be very careful as there are a number of pitfalls, literally, scattered around our countryside. Some are water collection areas, or wells and they are not always fenced in. A puppy out for its first walk after injections recently fell in one of the water pits shown below, luckily it had a harness on and the owner was able to catch hold and lift it out. (Its also got me thinking about mossies!)

These 2 near me are fairly visible structures but its not until you get right up to them that you realise there is water in them, and its' quite deep. A lot of the wells are just literally a hole in the ground with no cover at all. Can you imagine what hard work it was to create these in the old days before JCBs?
