Bring Back the Victoria Avenue Fountain
Please help us reinstate a working fountain on the junction of Victoria Avenue and Salisbury Street, Hull
About the Project Creator
We began as a residents' group set up by local artist, Jacky Ward Lomax, but we are now a registered charity, committed to installing a working fountain on the roundabout at the junction of Victoria Avenue and Salisbury Street, Hull and, along with Hilary Byers, Jackie Gilbert, Kate Stockdale and Ella Suto, Jacky Ward Lomax is still very much involved as a trustee of the Victoria Fountain charity. In the early part of the 20th Century when The Avenues was developed, it had fountains on most of the road junctions. At present, only two remain and neither of them has water. We intend to install a working cast iron fountain, which will be as close as we can get it to the original Victoria Avenue fountain and which, during the summer months, will sparkle with cascading water.
