Cistern Sinkhole


This cistern was part of the sheep barn that someone set fire 30 years ago. It is brick lined and water from the roof was collected here to provide a water source for the barn. The top of it collapsed leaving this 6 foot diameter hole in the ground. My cousin and I spent most of the afternoon filling it with rocks. Even with a backhoe, it was more work than I wanted to do on a Sunday afternoon!
