Carmunnock Conservation Village Heritage Trail
* Doo Well in Waterside Road is the last remaining of the four public wells in the village. The others were: the Low Green Well opposite Sunnybank Cottages; Halla Well in Busby Road at the side of the Churchyard Wall and Matthas Well at the lower end of Wellside Cottage garden, next to the lock-ups in Kirk Road. The water from Doo Well was considered the sweetest. The women and older children were responsible for filling the pails and pitchers and these well sites, therefore, became an important part of the social life of the village. Because the Doo Well still retained its pump and a steady flow of water into the trough, a grant was obtained by Carmunnock Preservation Society to restore the pump. This was achieved in 1996.
