Norton (the one near Askern) (click on photograph to bring up bigger/better version).

A restored pump installed in a garden at Norton, S. Yorks. Thanks to Jack Street for the photo. Markings: Flag and "PARAGON". Manufacturer: Lee Howl.

Also in Norton, S. Yorks, this pump has high and low level spouts, and the fulcrum layout indicates that it would once have had a compound handle. It's located just off the road running through the village, so we're guessing that it might have been used to fill water carts.Thanks to John Hurst for the photo. Markings: Lion. Manufacturer: Joseph Evans.
