It is one of two conduit heads built over a small stream that flows alongside Fore Street. The structure has a square plan and features an ashlar plinth topped with a pagoda-style roof, which includes a moulded cornice and a ball finial. The base is rendered and has a small round arch that spans the stream. The other conduit head is situated in The Square.
