Description
A water pump, erected in the late C19 or early C20, made by Joseph Evans and Sons of Wolverhampton.
MATERIALS: cast iron, with a stone basin.
EXTERIOR: the pump consists of a cast-iron column with a water-spout projecting from near the top, with a notched section on top of the spout from which the user could hang their bucket. Positioned to the right of the spout is the long, slightly curved handle of the pump. The upper portion of the column is fluted, and the pump is surmounted by a decorative fluted dome, topped with a pointed finial. The side of the column bears a lion rampant- a maker’s mark used by Joseph Evans and Sons of Wolverhampton. The pump is painted black. There is a small stone basin underneath it to catch surplus water.
