Have you heard of Weymouth's 'famous dripping well'?

It's on the Rodwell Trail, between Buxton Road and Wyke Road.

This is a petrifying well. This means anything dripped on will, in time, become covered in mineral deposits.

The water used to flow underground towards Rodwell but its route was interrupted when the railway cutting was dug, in the 1860s.

It's a local feature to look out for when you next walk or cycle along the trail.

Some more pics from yesterday’s open day at the archaeological dig on St Nicholas Street - site of the old bowling alley.

These are just some of the many items hidden underground for hundreds of years.

They’re a glimpse into everyday life in old Melcombe Regis.
