This photographs shows the King Edward VII Coronation Fountain in The Square. The Coronation Fountain was built in 1902, in the middle of The Square but was shifted to this location in 1926, to allow the Cenotaph to take the central focus. It was again shifted in 2005 to another part of The Square. Also visible are the Hopwood Clock Tower and the War Memorial.
