What is recorded here

Freestanding cast-iron waterpump, erected c.1890, comprising banded cylindrical shaft with fluted neck and cap with acorn finial and curved handle. 'Home' in raised lettering to both sides of spout. Located in yard of private dwelling to west of Multyfarnham.
Typical example of a cast-iron water pump. This water pump is of the same style as the mass-produced public water pumps but is (oddly) located in the rear yard of a private house. It has been at this site since 1914 according to cartographic evidence and is a particularly well-preserved example of its type.
