Another Shoot

This shoot has figured in an older picture posted on Picture Penzance; it had a cast-iron shield surround to the water outlet, which I believe was removed and placed on the Pig market wall; it has gone now. Perhaps it gave out Holy Water, who knows, but do you know where this is?
Mais non ... present spelling is chute but in all my records and documents it was spelt shoot, and because I am a devotee of what is our treasure and heritage, I believe in using the terms used at the time. ::15:
 
Oh, of course not, there s a hole in that one you can see through. This has got me scratching my head now... I know where it is, and just can t recall!
 
That s the one ... not so many people get to see this one, right on the corner. There are so many of these kind of treasures in town and they are gradually being lost. I would rather the money have been spent on repairing and preserving these than on the horse trough by Sir Humphry Davy. But then, what do us rabble know of these things?
