It features rubble walls and an iron pump with a dressed granite sink. The walls surround three sides of a rectangular platform, with the pump positioned near the center. The pump has a slender shaft, a curved spout, a fat fluted pump barrel, and a fluted domed cap topped with a finial. The sink includes a round basin and a drain hole.
