Description

Freestanding cast-iron "lion mask" water hydrant, extant 1940. Now disused. Road fronted on unkempt grass verge.

Appraisal

A "lion mask" water hydrant supplied by Glenfield and Kennedy (established 1852) of Kilmarnock representing an interesting example of mass-produced cast-iron work making a pleasing, if largely inconspicuous visual statement in a rural street scene.
