Description
The Village Pump, located on The Street in Heveningham, is a water pump that likely dates from the late 19th century. It features a green-painted, moulded cast-iron housing with a spout at the front and a curved handle on the side, topped with a domed cap. Notably, there is a lion rampant depicted on the side of the shaft. The pump is secured to a wooden post at the back.
