Description
The Ruskin Stone is a rectangular slab of stone located at the junction of West Street and Pound Street in Carshalton. It features an inscription that reads: "In obedience to the giver of Life/of the brooks and fruits that fed it/and the peace that ends/may this well be kept sacred/for the service/of men's flocks and flowers/and be by kindness called/Margaret's well." This pool was beautified and endowed by John Ruskin Esq M.A., L.L.D., in 1876. The stone commemorates the historical significance of Margaret's Pool.
