The building dates back to the 17th century and was originally two cottages that has now been converted into one dwelling. The pump from which it takes its name is in the front garden. One a couple of cottages which straggle down the A26 between the church and The Lay.

Dist:0.2km<br/>The name of the field according to Beddingham's 1843 tithe map which may have been grounds belonging to nearby Cobbe Place or a comment on the flatness and fecundity of the soil. The building in the distance to the left is Park Cottage which may suggest the former explanation.

Dist:0.3km<br/>Until the 1970s this was the B2109 and the lesser of the two routes heading north out of Newhaven. When the Lewes by-pass was built it was redesignated the A26 and improved to stop heavy lorries heading up what was then the A275 on the western side of the Ouse Valley and through Lewes. The minor road to the right follows the old course of the road through the village.

Dist:0.3km<br/>The road was straightened some time ago with the lane to the left being the old route that ran between the church and the old School, the white building just visible through the foliage. The road was upgraded from the B2109 to the A26 during the 1970s as part of the construction of the Lewes By-Pass and designed to take heavy lorries going to and from the port of Newhaven away from the narrow streets of the town. Mount Caburn provides the backdrop.
