The Ministère de la Culture's notice

Souche cylindrique couronnée par un cône en pierre supporté par de petites colonnettes. Une poulie trouvée sur la coupole dans la partie supérieure semble indiquer qu'elle pouvait être utilisée comme lanterne. Cette souche de cheminée est la seule subsistante de cette époque à Fons.

Cylindrical flue crowned by a cone in stone supported by small columns. A pulley found on the dome in the upper part seems to indicate that it could be used as a lantern. This chimney flue is the only remaining one from this period in Fons.
