Pentewen, Cornwall (click on photograph to bring up bigger/better version).
 

A very smart pump in the middle of the village square, Pentewen. Markings: None. Manufacturer: Unk.

These are the scant remains of an ancient pump near the well at the Lost Gardens of Heligan, Pentewen. Markings: None. Manufacturer: Unk.

And this one is mounted on the side of the well at Heligan. Markings: Lots, but largely obliterated by layers of paint. At the top of the barrel there's a trademark in the form of a circle containing the letters "AK" (possibly with another letter between them); below this are some numbers, poss starting with a 2 and ending with a 6; and lower down it's marked 3". The handle carries more obscured markings, of which I can only make out "75". Manufacturer: Unk.
