Description
This drinking fountain, built in 1874, features a Gothic style canopy. The cornice of the roof bears an inscription that reads: "In memory of Frederick William/6th Earl and 2nd Marquis of Bristol/by a few of his Lincolnshire tenantry/erected in the year of our Lord 1874." The fountain has a stone slate pyramid roof topped with a finial that displays a coat of arms and coronet, supported by four polished granite columns with stone bases and oak-leaf capitals. The frieze includes an inscription and vine scroll. There is a step leading up to the fountain, which has a plain stone gabled spout beneath. At the time of the survey, the fountain was disused. It forms a group with the Town Hall (Sessions House).
