More fun fountains in Newport, RI

"Most Fun" award!  This fountain sits on the patio of O'Brien's (Pub) & Restaurant, and allows kids to "fish" while waiting for their meals!

"Most Artistic" fountain: It's handcrafted of solid bronze, weighing nearly 900 lbs., and was  installed last Spring in Washington Square, Newport. It is a replica of a fountain that stood in the same spot about 100 years ago, and was used for watering horses.

Thanks to Barbara from the Middletown Public Library for sending these photos and captions!
