London, United Kingdom

Peace Memorial Fountain

The Peace Drinking Fountain is a fountain in the City of London. It was installed in 1873 as the centrepiece of Smithfield Rotunda Garden, which was laid out the year before; both the fountain and the garden are listed at Grade II. A bronze statue of Peace by John Birnie Philip stands at the centre

of the structure, which was originally surmounted by a domed canopy in a Romanesque style.
