Description
The Victoria Fountain is a fountain located in Brighton, built in 1846. It was designed by A.H. Wilds, with dolphin patterns modeled by M. Pepper, and the castings were made by the Eagle Foundry in Gloucester Road, Brighton. The construction was carried out by Williams and Yearsley. The fountain features a cast-iron pool with egg-and-dart mouldings around the rim and a pile of rocks in the center. On top of the rocks are three intertwined hollow dolphins, which contain pumps and support a cast-iron basin. A third basin and column were reinstated following restoration work in 1990.
