1959-62 Survey

Located approximately 500 m northeast of Lādo Sarā'i village. Grid ref. G-12

This well is currently covered in shrubbery and is hard to find, but its shape remains relatively intact. The outside is round, with a diameter of approximately 6 m, and the inside is an octagon with a diameter of 2.2 m. The well is just outside the south side of the wall surrounding a graveyard thought to belong to the middle Delhi Sultanate years. Since the well probably has some connection to the graveyard, it will be categorized in the same period. Period II (?)

ラードー・サラーイー部落の北東約500メートルにある。附図.G-12

この井戸は,現在,灌木におおわれて見つけにくいが,形は比較的よくのこっており,外側は,直径約6メートルの円形をなし,内側は,さしわたし2.2メートルの八角形をなしている。この井戸は,デリー諸王朝時代中期に属すると思われる墓地の南囲壁のすぐ外側にあり,両者は,なんらかの関連をもつものと思われるので,この井戸をも,一応,同期に属するものとしておく。第Ⅱ期(?)。

2015-18 Survey

This has become a monument in a park on the grounds of a library. It has holes but is used as a park bench. In the 1959-62 photos, just the stonework of a round well, emerging from the ground as layers of rough stones, can be seen immediately south of the south wall of G8. It is different from the W1 to W7 wells in that its inner shaft is octagonal in shape.

図書館の敷地内の公園のモニュメントとなり、穴は空いているものの、公園のベンチとして使用されている。1959-62年の写真からは、G8の南壁のすぐ南に円井戸の石積みが地表面から荒石積みで立ち上がっていることのみがわかる。内部のシャフトを8角形にしている点はW1からW7と異なる。
