Samuel Ladyman drinking Fountain

Samuel Ladyman - Author: His observations of his Keswick life were entitled "
Thoughts and Recollections of Keswick and Its Inhabitants During Sixty Years (1885)" A facsimile is available from Amazon. This fountain is just below the Toll Cottage on the previous post.
Samuel Ladyman Drinking Fountain, Chestnut Hill

The Plaque reads:
"Drinking Water Fountain
One of Four Erected Circa 1875
Cleaned and Marked by
Keswick Civic Society 2003"
Born on 26 Dec 1812 to Thomas Ladyman and Mary Wharton. Samuel married Isabella Dixon and had 2 children. Samuel married Jane Routledge. Samuel married Mary Wharton. He passed away on 31 Jul 1885 in Crosthwaite, Cumbria, England. Here is a link to another. I wonder where the other 2 are.
