Oh yeah, I am in Southern Wisconsin between Madison and Monroe. Just barely into the area called the driftless area. THis means the last ice age glaciers did not flatten the land and leave good soil. This is steep rocky limestone. I have no topsoil for the most part. that's why I don't row crop but instead graze my hillside. Active gravel pit across the road. According to maps I have there are about 20 surface mines (active and in-active) within a five mile radius. Again, I need to know why not to put the well inside the barn? More protected, easier to keep from freezing. The only bad thing I can come up with is the drainage. I am leaning toward digging pit inside the barn for well and pump near South wall. Then running pipe under wall to outside to frost-proof hydrant. Maybe second one inside building. Livestock (sheep, pigs, poultry) is mostly kept outside year-round. When inside they are confinded to the EAstside of barn and I will put the well on the Westside, which is the uphill side naturally.
