There are still more pumps to log in Framlingham.

framlingham Large double-spouted pump in the centre of Framlingham, with a compound handle, acorn finial, scalloped lower spout, and an inspection door. It's featured on their town sign, and is also waymarked on the Town Trail. Photos supplied by John Gow - thanks, John.

Markings: None.

Manufacturer: Unk.  

framlingham This interesting pump is set prominently in the centre of the neat Hitcham Almshouses in New Rd. Unfortunately, it's also a handy place to keep their dustbins, so the otherwise rather elegant effect is spoilt! Carries a coat of arms which is also used by the local Sir Robert Hitcham's School - so it must follow that it's his coat of arms. It has an inscription:
 WE 1835 T
Markings: None other.

Manufacturer: Unk. 

framlingham A wood-cased lead pump down an alleyway in Framlingham, Suffolk. Photos supplied by Mike Tovey - thanks, Mike.
