Toots in Solitude

Water Fountain

I think I may have blipped this Fountain before but it's worth another look, I thought. 
Designed and built by Dave Cohen, who would have been 91 on the 12th of this month, it sits at the edge of Waverley Bridge and Princes Street. 
Its neglected, mal-functioning as a water tap and I had to remove stubbed out ciggies and all sorts of litter from its basin.
It probably should have been positioned differently to start with as its back part is not visible due to the location of it.
It is a work of art that seems to have no place or identity anymore. Water taps as a source of drink would be well-used, I would imagine, in this weather if working.
