SP3378 : Animal drinking fountain, Greyfriars Green
taken 16 years ago, near to Coventry, England
Animal drinking fountain, Greyfriars Green
The fountain is at the end of a trough that now serves as a flower planter. The inscription on the plinth reads: "Coventry Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, erected in memory of Caroline Bray who founded the above society in 1878". A plaque on the side of the trough gives further information: "Caroline (Cara) Bray and her husband Charles were friends of George Eliot the Victorian novelist who attended school in nearby Warwick Row. This memorial trough, formerly in Queens Road was re-sited jointly by CVOne, Coventry City Council and the George Eliot Fellowship in 2002."
