Now rather forlorn and half forgotten looking, this drinking fountain originally stood some distance away on a triangle of grass at a road junction in front of The Court in the centre of the village of Hagley. The fountain was erected in 1915. According to the plaque it was erected by the friends and neighbours of Mr & Mrs John Grazebrook of Hagley to commemorate the sixtieth anniversary of their wedding, May 3rd 1855 and as a token of affection and respect. The Court was demolished in 1964 to make way for road widening and the fountain relocated.
