A superb restoration by Chris Bugler at Yetminster, Dorset. Photographs by Deryck Parris, supplied by Howard Jones - thanks, both. Most unusually the tank carries two spouts, one long enough to extend over the width of the adjacent wall. Perhaps a wooden bung would have been used to select which side delivered water. Markings: One side of the lead tank carries the letters "TAM" - or is it "ATM", and the date 1788. Manufacturer: Unk.

Also in Yetminster, Dorset. Thanks to Shawn Shaw for the photo. Markings: None. Manufacturer: Unk.
