What is recorded here
The Water pump in Balla has a square front and no longer supplies water. Glenfield and Kennedy of Kilmarnock managed to cast the exact expression of a man whose round it is when somebody suggests staying for another.
Freestanding cast-iron water hydrant, extant 1945. Now disused. Square fronted on concrete 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.
