Internal well head exposed in cellar. Goldwell was the family home of Thomas Cobb, who died here 1528. Cobb's Hall (item 4/51 ) which was supposedly built for him and associated with the Holy Maid of Kent (Elizabeth Barton, Cobb's servant), may therefore not have been the scene of the events tempus Henry VIII (See under Cobb's Hall) which have given that building some notoriety.
