Description
The village pump, including its surrounding walls and railings, was erected in 1844 by the Reverend E.E. Coleridge. It is located on the north-east boundary of the churchyard and features flint rubble walls that create a three-sided enclosure. The back wall has a Gothic style freestone inscription panel with a two-centred arch filled with blind tracery motifs. The inscription states, "This pump for the use of the poor was placed here by subscription 1844 Edwin E. Coleridge Vicar," along with appropriate biblical texts below. The side walls are topped with stone coping and have iron railings with spike finials. The pump itself is boxed in, and its handle ends in a ball, making it an unusual survival.
