What is recorded here
Water pump in Cooldrinagh has concrete walls on three sides, giving a public water supply the privacy of a confession box. 'Bless me, Father, I've been watering the neighbour's milk.'
Freestanding cast-iron water pump, c.1880, with mass concrete boundary wall to three sides. 'T & T' logo to side.
An increasingly rare piece of street furniture, particularly in a suburban context, and a valuable remnant of local social history.
