Description
The pump and trough, located 40 metres to the northeast of the Church of St Uda in St Tudy, date from around the mid-19th century. The village pump is made of cast iron and features a fluted domed cap with a finial, along with a gadrooned spout that overhangs the granite trough situated directly to the south. The trough has an unusual shape, consisting of a rectangular basin with a narrow drainage or outlet channel on the south side. This channel has been extended in concrete to allow excess water to drain away. Originally, the pump was positioned on the northeast side of the village green before road alterations in the 20th century.
