What is recorded here
Detached monument with fountain, erected 1884. Partly replaced, 1998. The fountain is constructed in granite and depicts a rampant wyvern holding a shield motif derived from the arms of former Reginald Brabazon, Lord Ardee, the owner of much of the Bray estate at that time. The wyvern stands in a decorative stone "bowl" which in turn stands on an octagonal plinth. The monument is prominently sited in front of the town hall and market house.
This is a well preserved fountain, colloquially known as "The Devil" or "The Wyvern", fronts Bray Town Hall and Market House and closes the vista down Main Street.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
