What is recorded here
Freestanding cast-iron water pump, erected c.1880, with foliate spout, fluted cap and finial, banded shaft with foundry stamp, ram's head bucket grip, and cow's tail handle. Set on concrete platform with rendered boundary walls and rendered steps.
This attractive cast-iron water pump is located at a T-junction. It would once have acted as a communal water source. The banding and fluting are well executed and, along with elegantly curved handle, add artistic interest to a utilitarian object.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
