Any idea what this is and who put it there etc?
It's on the High Street by St. Johns' Church, it's not listed.
Best guess is that it is a drinking trough for horses on the A5 road through Bangor.
Appears to be on the 1840 Tithe map
Old drinking fountain with trough, Llandegai
A worn Inscription carved around the inner arch reads ' THIS FOUNTAIN WAS ERECTED / BY / MR. DAWKINS PENNANT / FEBY 17TH 1854 '.
