Drinking fountain of polished red Aberdeen granite set into the wall of St Anne's church, Stanley and provided by cotton merchant and philanthropist Charles Pierre Melly. He was born in Tuebrook on 25th May 1829 and came up with the idea for public drinking fountains during a visit to his father's birthplace of Geneva, Switzerland in 1852. He erected the first in 1854 and many more around the city in the following years, these fountains provided fresh water for working class people at a time when pure drinking water was almost unavailable. Many are still in existence in Liverpool, this one originally would have had a brass tiger head water spout.
