Very ornate fountain, deserves more than a quick glance
Queen Victoria Fountain的点评
点评：Monday afternoon on the 28th August we were stolling around sightseeing in Dun Laoghaire. We had parked up on Harbour Road near the Royal Saint George Yacht Club.
We saw this fountain at the intersection of Marine Road & Queen's Road and opposite Dun Laoghaire railway station
The fountain was erected in 1900 to commemorate Queen Victoria's visit to Dun Laoghaire, previously called Kingstown from 1821 until 1920 when it got it's current name.
The vivid green fountain stands on a tiled mosaic floor inside a metal structure with eight ornate arches supporting an ornate metal dome and topped with a golden crown.
Each arch has a gold painted shield, two of the shields depict Queen Victoria in profile the others have birds and text. There is an owl on the inside, towards the top of each arch supporting column.
The fountain itself comprises of four basins supported by feet shaped like a lion, each basin has it's individual water spout. It is topped by Pegasus, a winged horse
In 1980 it was vandalised and then suffered more damage in 1981. It was not restored and repaired until 2001.
At the time of our visit there was no water flowing in the fountain, don't think it has for some time.
The amount of detail and the workmanship in the is rather special, deserves more than a quick look.

翻译：8月28日星期一下午，我们在邓莱里闲逛观光。我们把车停在皇家圣乔治游艇俱乐部附近的港湾道。
我们在马林路和皇后大道交汇处、邓莱里火车站对面看到了这个喷泉
该喷泉建于 1900 年，是为了纪念维多利亚女王访问邓莱里 (Dun Laoghaire)，邓莱里 (Dun Laoghaire) 从 1821 年起一直被称为金斯敦 (Kingstown)，直到 1920 年才改为现在的名称。
生动的绿色喷泉矗立在金属结构内的瓷砖马赛克地板上，有八个华丽的拱门支撑着华丽的金属圆顶，顶部有金色王冠。
每个拱门都有一个金色的盾牌，其中两个盾牌描绘了维多利亚女王的侧面，其他盾牌上有鸟类和文字。每个拱形支撑柱的顶部内侧都有一只猫头鹰。
喷泉本身由四个水池组成，由狮子形状的脚支撑，每个水池都有其单独的喷水口。它的顶部是飞马，一匹有翼的马
1980年遭到破坏，1981年遭到更严重的破坏，直到2001年才得到修复。
我们参观时喷泉里没有水流，估计已经有一段时间没有水了。
其细节和做工相当特别，值得一看。
