10. The Boy and the Dolphin Fountain

This fountain is placed on a pathway known as The Mayor’s Walk. Joseph Radcliffe, Mayor of Oldham, presented this fountain to the new park and it was one of the features visitors saw at the opening in 1865.

Can you see the dolphin? What other watery creatures might you use when designing a fountain?
