Bedford’s latest “tourist attraction”
I’ve got a sneaking suspicion that its probably illuminated at night. Have to check that out and see if I can get some more photos if so.The “fountain’s” located in an area of the town known locally as Pigeon Square (no prizes for guessing why). It also just happens to be the place where all the local tramps, winos and reprobates seem to congregate.
So I’ve got this theory: its not really a fountain at all. Its actually an open-air shower/bidet (work it out for yourself!) for the area’s great unwashed.
On the other hand, it could simply be a means of keeping the pavement permanently clean of all the pigeon droppings.
Whatever it is, it hardly qualifies as an attention-grabber as far as I’m concerned.
