Well, it's not where it should be,or at least it's not how it should be... The well pipe should normally stick up out of the ground about 18" to 24". With some help from several sources, I was able to determine my well was in my driveway under a metal grate. The following pictures are more for the well company that's going to weld an extension on the well head so I can have better access to it. Of course, it's not that simple, since it's in my driveway near the corner of a parking area, I'll, of courses, have to dig up part of my driveway and extend the parking area to protect the well from being hit by a car as well as keep it out of the asphalt driveway...
I had to dig out this part, all you saw when removing the grate was mud. At first I thought it was a drain!
One of the reasons to adjust the driveway is so the water that runs down the hill when it rains, doesn't run right in the area of the well. Not the best thought out plan.
The well aligns perfectly with the part of the house that sticks out to the right of the garage. In that location in the basement is the water pipe and power for the well pump. At least it's a perfectly strait shot from there to the well... I'll only lose about 36" of a parking area in the driveway. Where the tree is and orange stick is a garden area I'll extend around the new well head...
