What is recorded here
Water pump in Ballycastle came from Kilmarnock and was already here in 1917. It's retired now, after a career of giving away water. A Scotsman in Mayo who never charged for a round: there's a character the old jokes weren't ready for.
Freestanding cast-iron water hydrant, extant 1917. Now disused. Street fronted on tarmacadam footpath.
A water hydrant supplied by Glenfield and Kennedy (established 1852) of Kilmarnock representing an interesting example of mass-produced cast-iron work making a pleasing, if largely inconspicuous visual statement in a rural village street scene.
