There is a fascinating corner of the Cotswold’s in Compton Abdale with a very unusual spring, which a respected builder from the nearby village of Hazleton built from Cotswold Stone in the 19th Century. Presumably some local landowner paid for it. The feature is shaped like a crocodile’s head and the spring water has been gushing out of the crocodile’s mouth ever since. Some days after lots of heavy rain, it is a truly spectacular sight.
I wish I could capture the sound of the pure rushing water for you but my photos will have to do.
I marvel at the fact that nature produces a constant supply of fresh water for us here. Would that other parts of the world were so lucky.
Interesting finding Brenda!

There are some unusual sights around and they make English towns and villages so individual. I love finding them!

LOL, we have REAL alligators here although I haven’t seen any rushing water coming from them!! They do make quite a splash as they jump into the waters from the riverbanks!
