Two licences of right existed in the north Bedford. The first existed near the River Great Ouse at the Clapham Pumping Station operated by Anglian Water (AW) (Licence no. 6/33/11/22). This consisted of two wells with headings and collecting galleries in the Oolitic Limestone, constructed between 1867 and 1928. The second was situated 950 m east of the first at Park Road North and is operated by Charles Wells Ltd., (CWL) (Licence no. 6/33/11/14), a brewery and major employer in the town. At that dates from around 1903 and was 24 metres deep.
