This granite fountain inscribed "Erected by the friends of the late George Dewhurst" was originally placed in a wall of the old market house in Blackburn in 1858. In 1935 it was moved to a new position underneath Darwen Street bridge where it had fallen into a somewhat dilapidated state. http://www.cottontown.org/page.cfm?LANGUAGE=eng&pageID=2970
