The Ready Money fountain on the Broad Walk in Regents Park (near London Zoo S.E. corner), London. To activate, stick your finger in the nozzle. The Ready Money Drinking Fountain is a four-sided granite and marble gothic drinking fountain that gets its unusual name from Sir Cowasjee Jehangir, whose nickname was Ready Money. It is located in the centre of the Broad Walk. Ready Money was a wealthy Parsee industrialist from Bombay who donated it to The Regent's Park in 1869 as a thank-you for the protection that he and fellow Parsees received from British rule in India. The sculpture contains 10 tonnes of Sicilian marble and four tonnes of red Aberdeen granite. It was unveiled by Princess Mary of Teck, later Queen Mary after whom Queen Mary's Gardens are named. (text credit) Date: 1869 Photos taken in February 2019 with a Sony a6000 and processed in Agisoft Metashape.
