Large segmental arch with interior divided into two arched recesses with plain bracketed cornices to top of facade wall; side walls project from each side of arch for about 1 metre and are then rounded to become normal boundary walls: inside archway in centre is cast iron water spout and drain under: in left recess a large stone sink. Presumably built by the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway (1855-l966) when the original was either buried or threatened by the new railway embankment.
