Design
The fountain was designed by architect John Robinson. It features bronze sculpture by artist Joseph Durham.[1] Statuary on it depicts St Lawrence and St Mary Magdalene.[2]
History
The fountain was originally installed in 1866 outside the Church of St Lawrence Jewry. It was dismantled into 150 pieces in the 1970s and put into a city vault for fifteen years, then stored in a barn at a farm in Epping. The pieces were sent to a foundry in Chichester for reassembly in 2009.[1] It was moved to the current location in 2010.[2]
