Description

The water hydrant outside Conigar Cottage is a cast iron structure made by Glenfield and Kennedy of Kilmarnock, dating from the late 19th century or early 20th century. It features a fluted pillar standing on a plinth, topped with a band and a fluted domical cap that has a bud finial. A lion head is cast into one side of the hydrant, and there are four spouts with keyed stoppers set into the band.
