Description
This listing describes a cast iron pump with a cylindrical stem that stands approximately 5 to 5½ feet high. The pump features a broad, fluted head and a fluted cap. It has a sinuous handle with a bulbous oval end on the left side and a spout on the far side, which is adorned with scroll ornamentation.
Additionally, there is a fountain with a fluted stem that is about 3 feet high, topped with a splayed out section. The rim of the fountain has regularly spaced openings that may be for tap handles, and there is an outlet pipe below. A maker's plate on the fountain indicates it was produced by Glenfield and Kennedy Ltd. in Kilmarnock.
