Memorial Fountain

Constructed of rock-faced stone under a half-hipped slate roof with very wide boarded eaves. The fountain is set back within a horseshoe-shaped arch with keystone. It takes the form of a green-stone bowl which is carefully rounded and delicately ornamented with floral detail; the original tap is missing, with modern replacement to R. Either side of the fountain are bronze plaques with the monogram G & MLV and their coat of arms; both are set below green-stone hoodmoulds. Central freestone panel above fountain bowl with inscription: 'Colonel George Hope Lloyd-Verney gave the first water supply in 1888 to the village of Llangurig. - He sendeth the springs into the rivers which run among the hills. Pslm CIX ver 10. - The supply has been completed and extended by Mrs Lloyd-Verney in 1898 as a memorial of her husband's work.' Pink granite trough to base with keystones over twin segmental arches out through which the water drains. Cobbled paving reset to front. To rear, recess between continuous buttresses, the recess with corner seats and small boarded hatch to centre.
