St Lawrence and Mary Magdalene Drinking Fountain, 1866 (2010)
Carter Lane Gardens, City of London
London, May 2023

“The St Lawrence and Mary Magdalene Drinking Fountain is a drinking fountain on the eastern side of Carter Lane Gardens, near St Paul's Cathedral in London. The fountain was designed by the architect John Robinson. It features bronze sculpture by the artist Joseph Durham. It includes statues of the saints Lawrence and Mary Magdalene. The fountain was originally installed in 1866 outside the church of St Lawrence Jewry. It was dismantled into 150 pieces in the 1970s which were stored in a vault in the City of London for fifteen years, and after that in a barn at a farm in Epping. The pieces were sent to a foundry in Chichester for reassembly in 2009. The fountain was reassembled in its current location in 2010.” (St Lawrence and Mary Magdalene Drinking Fountain, Wikipedia)
