Description

Memorial drinking fountain (or trough) of 1893, set into the boundary wall to the front of the Annesley Estate office, on the W side of South Promenade. The structure is in the form of a Tudoresque gable and is granite built. The gable verge has chamfered coping and its main face has a central memorial plaque in [?] Portland stone edged with polished granite. This plaque has moulded coronet thereon and a dedication to Priscilla Cecilia, Countess of Annesley. At the gable ends are stocky projecting piers with cornice-like courses and chamfered caps. These piers rest on plainer piers which project from the low wall (upon which the whole gable rests). Between the wall piers is a large granite drinking trough with small tap above. The boundary wall retains its original wrought iron railings.
