A nicely
presented wooden-boxed lead pump in what used to be called Pump St., but is now
Church Square. The tank carries two embossed designs, very worn but possibly
depicting drinking cups surmounted by crosses, the letters "RC", and a date -
1826. The lead "rat's tail" downpipe is exposed behind a metal grille.
A plaque to one side recounts some of the history
relating to the water tower. Markings: None other reported. Manufacturer: Unk. |
