43. Couple Discovers Medieval Well under Their Living Room Flooring
Location: Plymouth in England
Year Found: 2015.
Est. Value: Unknown
When a British couple tried to figure out why their living-room was not level, they discovered an incredible discovery beneath their foundation. When they pulled up the floorboards, they discovered a thirty-three-foot-deep well that dates back to medieval times.
According to research, it appears that the well was part of an aqueduct built in the 1500s. Sir Francis Drake constructed the aqueduct in order to transport water from Plymouth, to Dartmouth. The homeowners covered the well with a trapdoor to make it more visible. We can only hope that this will not be the plot of the next installment of PARA.
44. A Mysterious Safe Found in the Middle Of a New York Field
Location Barre (New York)
2020 Year is Discovered
Est. Value: Unknown
This is one of the strangest events of 2020. Kirk Mathes found a 600 pound safe in the middle of an NY agricultural field. The metal safe was transported with heavy machinery. However, no one knew when or why it was placed there.
Kirk the farmer has no interest in opening the safe. He believes that mystery is a great way to distract people from their mundane daily routines. Mathes said he didn’t care who put the safe on the field. He expected “jokers” or “wise guys” to do it. No amount of Google can ever answer this question.
