What is recorded here
Water pump in Glencullen sits idle on a grass verge beside an overgrown wall. The greenery is swallowing the one thing that might once have watered it. That’s gratitude for you: retire, and they start dividing up your spot before you’ve left.
Freestanding cast-iron "cow tail" waterpump, extant 1937. Now disused. Road fronted on grass verge with overgrown boundary wall to perimeter.
A "cow tail" waterpump representing an interesting example of mass-produced cast-iron work making a pleasing, if largely inconspicuous visual statement in a sylvan street scene.
