Freestanding cast-iron water pump, erected c.1870, having banded cylindrical shaft, fluted neck, ram's head bucket grip, fluted domed top with pointed finial and cow's tail pumping arm. Rendered wall to rear and sides. Stile in rendered wall to side of well enclosure.
This is a good example of the standard water pump design prevalent in the late nineteenth century. It is of social history and technical interest, having provided water to the district for perhaps a century.
