Well, well, well… there were THREE wells after all!
This story just keeps getting more interesting.
When I was originally filming the archaeology on the Universal United Kingdom Resort site, I spotted one of the wells. Then, after I posted the footage, you eagle-eyed lot quickly pointed out that there was actually a SECOND one hiding in plain sight.
But now it turns out there are THREE!
After the Bedford Independent contacted Universal for a statement about the discovery, Universal confirmed that three potential wells had been uncovered on the site.
Unfortunately, all of the wells have now been covered over for health and safety reasons, so we can't simply look down and confirm exactly what's underneath each cover.
However… I think I've found the third one.
I can't say with 100% certainty that this is definitely it, but the location I've spotted has been protected in exactly the same way as the other two wells. There's nothing else I've seen in this area that appears to require this particular level of protection, so as an educated guess, I'd say there's a very good chance we're looking at well number three.
One well became two… and two became three.
Now the question is: what else have we missed?
The archaeology on this site is turning into one of the most fascinating parts of following the Universal project.
