Description

The Fountain Memorial is a memorial fountain built in 1889, provided by Mrs. Hibbert. It features a sandstone plinth with stone piers that support a pyramidal Horsham slab roof. The structure has a square plan with square angle piers and a central pillar. The piers have chamfered angles with broach stops and are topped with cushion capitals. The central pier also has a cushion capital, and there are granite bowls on the east and west sides. A bronze plaque is located on the south side. This fountain serves as a notable feature in the village center.
