Shows a fountain in the garden of the Horsely Down station.
This is the middle section of a three-part picture of the Horsely Down station (left and right sections precede and follow this one in the sketchbook).
The station was the home of John Willoughby Mallock, built in 1872 and occupied by him until his death in 1879. It was built in brick with a slate roof and had a fine surrounding garden. The fountain, still standing, was fed by a water-race several kilometres long and dug by hand from springs on the far side of the hill.
