Try my grand-father's house, next to BigFoot, in Loutolim (Melo, or Rao Sahib Joaquim da Costa might get you there). Access to the well round the back. Incidentally, my uncle, Dr. Alvaro da Costa, has built a "St Michael's Garden" (with assistance from Jocelino Maendra Alvares) opposite the house , so you shouldn't miss it. Besides being the deepest well I've ever seen (over 50 metres), from what I can remember, it is cut through laterite rock all the way down.
