Another thing that would help would be to haul in some fill and build up around your well pit area. That way, even rain runoff from your own yard will divert around the pit area.
As for your ditch, John said it best. Can't wait for others to do what they say. On the other hand, gotta be careful and fully document what you do AND "WHY"!!
