There were originally three pumps in Hawarden, used between 1805 and 1886. This is the only survivor and has been relocated from its original site where the war memorial now stands.

Photographed from Church Road, the plaque above the doorway to number 10 The Highway reads '1877'. Prior to this date, according to the surveyor's schedule from 1851-2 for the 'Abstract of levelling from Warrington to Pembroke Docks, through Chester, Flint', there was a 1GL '[bench]Mark on large stone at door of Ann Williams's house, opposite road to Hawarden Church'. Clearly 'Ann Williams's house' has been demolished. A Francis Frith photo from 1903 shows that the shop on the left was already a chemist's at that date. The Gallery Coffee Shop is more recent, but equally useful.

Looking along the stone wall towards the junction of Gladstone Way with The Highway in Hawarden. On the left there is a bench mark that isn't recorded on the modern O.S. database and I have only found on the 1938 map. See [[1496934]] The red-brick terrace of houses on the right were built in 1877 and are opposite Church lane - see [[1476795]]

This bench mark is on the stone wall surrounding the grounds of St Deiniol's Library and faces the war memorial in Hawarden. It is not recorded on the O.S. database and I have only found it on the 1938 O.S. map. See also [[1496941]]

Formerly Hawarden Infants' School, opened in 1872, the hall is in Church Lane next to the old Tithe Barn. In between times it became the church hall but now belongs to the world famous St Deniol's Library nearby.
