Located here. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4483871 Text at the bottom of the fountain states ERECTED BY WM ALEXANDER MAYOR OF CARDIFF 1860. Does ERECTED in this context mean "unveiled by" "financed by" or "constructed by"? Text behind the figures of Jesus and a woman is from the Bible, John Chapter 4. The top three lines in view are JESUS SAID UNTO HER WHOSOEVER DRINKETH OF THIS WATER SHALL THIRST AGAIN.
