drooping lead spout on the north side and an iron handle on the west side;
and there is a sandstone slab beneath the spout, with rounded front and worn
surface. The shelter is rectangular, and open-sided, with 4 timber corner
posts and wavy braces to horizontal beams at the eaves, and a steeply-pitched
hipped roof of fishscale tiles, swept over the eaves, and with cresting to

"0 Ye Wells Bless Ye
The Lord Praise Him
And Magnify Him
For Ever"
