Nottinghamshire oil well

Whip Ridding Farm

An exploratory well was drilled here in January 2010 by Egdon Resources plc. Click here. It is a mile or so west of Kirklington well (click here) and well hidden.

But walk through Redgate Wood from the nearby Dukes Wood oil well museum, and brave the “no-entry” signs protecting the pheasants.

It doesn’t seem to be producing. Maybe they’re waiting for the price to rise.
