The Department's description

Exterior description and setting

A cow tail closed head lever type pump with a plain spirally decorated column and a fluted cap with an acorn finial. Located in front garden of house.

Historical information

Not on the 1901 25 inch OS map (PRONI Ref OS 10/1/63/5/1). House and pump shown on the 1920 edition (/2). According to the owner of the house, the pump was probably installed about 1905 by the Lisburn RDC to serve this and neighbouring houses. It was in use until 20-25 years ago. Further particulars in the EHS Report 'Water Pumps in Northern Ireland : A Preliminary Survey' by Fred Hammond, January 1997, Pump no. 60.
