Summary

Description	English: Gemmill's drinking fountain in the grounds of the National Museum of Singapore. Dated 1864, it was donated by John Gemmill, a resident of Singapore in the first half of the 19th century. It was originally located in Raffles Place, but by the 1920s it was found in a municipal store and moved to the vicinity of the Victoria Memorial Hall. The lion's mouth was damaged by vandals during the Japanese Occupation but later repaired. In 1967 it was installed in the grounds of the National Museum. It was kept in the Heritage Conservation Centre in 2003 when the Museum was renovated, and finally installed at its present location in January 2010. The inscription on the upper part of the fountain reads: "FOR THE USE OF ALL NATIONS / AT / SINGAPORE / THIS DRINKING FOUNTAIN / OF PURE WATER IS THE GIFT OF / JOHN GEMMILL / FORMERLY OF THIS ISLAND / AND NOW OF LONDON". The year "1864" is engraved below the basin.
