Description

Freestanding water hydrant, erected c. 1900, having fluted shaft and domed cap with lion mask spout, and remains of bucket stand. Recent tap to north side in place of original knob handle.

Appraisal

The hydrant makes an interesting addition to the streetscape and adds character to the village. The fluted casting provides artistic detail and this functional object is further enlivened by the lion mask.
