A Scottish water supply
The length of Golden Hill in Wiveliscombe is dotted with a number of public water fountains. This one is at the junction with Burges Close and shows the square plate, tap and spout that was made by the Kilmarnock foundry of Thomas Kennedy.
Thomas Kennedy (senior) was born in Argylshire but moved to Kilmarnock in 1824. Principally a watch and clockmaker he became involved in making a water meter system with his partner, John Cameron. The firm made several products for the water industry, and Wiveliscombe has several still surviving, although it seems none actually dispense water any more.

Golden Hill fountain
There are a few such old water fountains on Golden Hill. This one is similar to the others but has the mark of 'Glenfield', not Kennedy. Glenfield was a large iron foundry and associated industrial site in Kilmarnock that started life in the nineteenth century. Thomas Kennedy started producing water metering items and the firms merged later on.
