Description

This is a good example of a cow tail water pump, dating from between 1900 and 1919. The pump stands in a garden beside Park Lane, Gilford, County Down, and holds group value with the other water pumps in the area. It is an open head lever type with a plain column and fluted cap. The column is inscribed with a flag logo, identifying the manufacturer as Lee Howl & Co., Tipton, England, and the inscription "2 1/2". It is likely a 'Paragon strong yard pump'. The pump is mounted on a concrete base, but is currently missing a link from the handle where it connects to the column. It is of industrial archaeological interest and was recorded as derelict. Further information can be found in the Environment Heritage Service Report 'Water Pumps in Northern Ireland: A Preliminary Survey' by Fred Hammond, January 1997, Pump no 56.
