This site was established by Wal Pilz (1927-2016) to share historical information depicted in photos and images of old scenes of the Rylstone District. Wal's belief was that sharing history was the best way to create a living history for Rylstone and the surrounding district. In Wal's memory, the site will continue to operate as an online database and you are invited to contribute images and information. Please comment or email Dan Hatton at oldimagesrylstonedistrict@gmail.com.
Wishing Well, Cherry Tree Hill
Herbert Harris standing in front of the Wishing Well, late 1948.
Herbert's father George was contracted to cut a well at road level to collect water seepage. This was approx. 1878 or 9. The masonry was erected in 1939. See Piddington, , pages 35-6.
