St Bernard's Well, Stockbridge, Edinburgh

A stroll by the Water of Leith this morning. The St Bernard's Well pump room is open this weekend (1 September), and it's worth going along for a peek inside as it's beautifully finished. The statue in the centre is Hygeia the Greek godess of health sculpted from Coade stone by D.W. Stevenson. The snake and the challis are ancient symbols of medicine. (Thanks to this website for the info.)
