What is recorded here

Freestanding cast-iron waterpump, c.1875, comprising banded cylindrical shaft with moulded necking supporting cylindrical head having spout, curvilinear 'cow tail' handle having finial, and moulded domed capping having finial. Now disused. Set back from line of road in stone depot on stone flagged base having random rubble stone boundary wall.

An early-surviving artefact of mass-produced cast-iron ware making an appealing, if modest impression on the visual appeal of the street scene. Despite concessions to aesthetic effects through the incorporation of inscribed and raised details the waterpump remains of primary significance as a reminder of the mechanisms installed for the provision of clean drinking water before the development of mains systems.
