St. Peter's Pump once stood on the corner of Dolphin Street and Peter Street in Bristol.
It was originally erected in the 1470s and stood above St. Edith's Well. The building was removed in the 1760s and placed on a Gothic base in the gardens at Stourhead. Interestingly, the relocated 15th Century structure was placed over an exististing shaft well.
