I just returned from Brermuda and spent a lovely long weekend in Hamilton and the surrounding area. On the tourist map i noticed a point of interest on the north shore. "The Blackwatch Well" A little History: Bermuda's Black Watch Well at the junction with the North Shore Road is named in tribute. It was dug in 1849. When the Governor of the period ordered British soldiers to seek a fresh water supply for the poor of Pembroke Parish and their cattle during a prolonged drought, the Black Watch was the first to volunteer and dug so thoroughly the facility still exists today.
So we visited the site and were appauled to see it covered in litter and discarded beer bottles. I took this photo and left out the upsetting condition of the site. I love Bermuda, and really loved the charming city of Hamilton. I intend to get a letter off to the authorities on the condition of the Well.
