Description
The Steven Memorial Fountain, located on the Esplanade in Ayr, was designed by the Steven Brothers and is dated 1892. This painted cast-iron fountain features a four-stage design.

The upper basin is supported by a baluster and is topped with an otter on a ball finial, which holds a fish in its mouth.
