Mid C19. Shallow terra-cotta bowl, with guilloche moulding below a scalloped
run and lotus leaf pattern on underside, rests on a stem with acanthus leaf moulding. This is supported on a carved octagonal stone base of more modern appearance, and the whole is set in a modern square pool with brick side walls. Plaque on west side: "This fountain was erected in 1858 at the top of Tubwell
Row and later moved to Green Park. It was moved to the present site in 1970 as
a gift from the North of England Newspapers to mark the centenary of the
Northern Echo first published in Darlington on first January 1870".
