Tauragat Well
Tauragat Well
Tauragat Well is a disused well in the Australian state of South Australia located in the locality of Coonalpyn along the Coonalpyn-Lameroo Road approximately 12 kilometres (7.5 mi) north east of the locality's town centre.
The well was built in 1876 on land in what is now section 48 of the cadastral unit of the Hundred of Livingstone[2] to water stock on route either to the greater South East or up north east to the Mallee. A plaque was unveiled in 1976, on its Centenary by the Chairman of the District Council of Peake (now the Coorong District Council).
A few kilometres east of Tauragat Well along the Coonalpyn-Lameroo Road is Tauragat Hill. It has a trig point on top of it.
