My well casing is collapsing


I've got an old well that's concrete up top but turns to cedar lower down. It's currently about 30ft deep and we used to use it to water the garden. The cedar casing is collapsing and has trapped the pump down low (I just broke the rope trying to pull it out) in the sugar and that's before my property.

The collapsing is causing a "sink hole" up top that you cant see because of some concrete a dumped there before it collapsed.

Does anyone have any experience with this? I'd like to do something with it so I can use it again and have it not be a safety hazard.
