Barnowner where I do some work at asked me to put a closet in her laundry room. House was built in the 1800's, laundry room added a few decades ago. Saw a piece of plywood in the corner with bags and shoes on top. She said it covers a well. I moved the plywood with my foot and was looking down at whay the OP's picture showed. 25 ft deep, half full of water. Now, she had raised a son in the house and had small dogs. I was amazed that nothing ever ended up in that thing considering how flimsy the cover was. First thing I did was fill the well. Regulations say to pump it dry (we got it down to a foot or 2), put bentonite layer, then sand every 10 ft with another layer of bentonite. I used rebar across the opening before I cemented it in case the fill settled.
Found another one in the barn with a flimsy steel cover on it. It's filled now as well. I'd sure get that one in the picture filled ASAP.
