Description
The structure is an L-shaped wall that forms two sides of a square, located to the north and east side of the car park south of Llanrhos churchyard. It is constructed of rubble stone with cock-and-hen coping. The wall features a curved angle, and at the northern end, it curves to meet the eastern side of the lych gate. In the eastern wall, there is a doorway with a gabled head and a 19th-century iron kissing gate, which has standards topped with cast-iron urn finials.
On the southern side, there is a former drinking fountain framed by a pointed arch made of tooled stone with stop-chamfer moulding, although it has a later concrete block over the apex. The fountain includes a rectangular stone trough at the base, with run-out channels that may have been cut in. The back of the fountain is made of coursed freestone and features a rounded corbelled basin, along with a fixing plate for the former spout. An inscription reads, "In commemoration of the forty-third year of the ministry of the Rev John Davies MA vicar of this parish June 1st 1889." Surrounding the arch is another inscription, "[To] everyone that thirsteth come ye to the waters." The left-hand upright of the fountain is inscribed, "This water supply is from the Llandudno main."
