Artesian Well - 1906

Artesian Well

Artesian Well

The well adjacent to Tillman Hall is one of five original wells that once provided water for the campus community. Water from this particular well was stored in a 24,000 gallon tank located directly under Tillman's  bell tower. A wooden structure stood at the site from 1901–05 and was used by campus security as an office. In 1906, the current brick structure was built.
