The terps, built since the 12th century, had to find a source of fresh water. The fething has been used as a fresh water reservoir in the terp until modern times. This is the only surviving storehouse of its kind on the island. It was repaired in 1934 and supplied water for people and animals until the island was connected to the central water supply (1964). With a water depth of up to 5m, the Fething could contain approx. 350sqm of rainwater, which was originally scooped up with buckets from two opposite jetties, and later also pumped with hand pumps.
