This one, under a tiled octagonal brick-built shelter in the
middle of the green at Ardeley, Herts, is a bit unusual. The flywheel is
connected to a single throw crank via a 4:1 gearing mechanism, and below this
is what I can only guess is a counterweight - although how it is connected is
not obvious from the photo. Markings: Unk. Manufacturer: Unk. |

The pump at the crossroads at Hexton, Herts, carries fingerposts
and a lamp. It also has an inscription, but it can't be read from this
photo. Markings: Unk. Manufacturer: Unk. |

A very ornate bulbous pump under a substantial wooden shelter at
Watton-at-Stone, apparently erected in 1894 by Abel Smith of Woodhall Park as a
memorial to his son Lt. Gen. P. Smith. Abel Smith owned practically all of the
parish of Bramfield in those days. Markings: Unk. Manufacturer: Unk. |
