Description

This fountain and basin, located about 20 yards west of Caradoc Court, likely dates from the mid-19th century and is made of cast iron. The circular basin features a rolled edge and contains a central fountain with three swans positioned against a central baluster. This baluster supports an upper basin, from which an elongated nozzle extends. The fountain and basin are included for their group value.
