The old irrigation well on Dorchester's flood plain was where the only prisoner to escape from Dorchester prison met his end - he fell into the pond on a dark night after getting out of the prison through the well. It has recently been restored and refurbished, a retreat from the bustle of the town where you can walk and think in peace.
