There is some suggestion that this C18th covered pump arrangement in The Square was a folly built by the Baron Middleton of the time (the Willoughby family) to encourage the development of village life and that the actual water source for this neighbourhood was somewhere else nearby. Beyond it is The Admiral Rodney public house on Wollaton Road.
