Lieu-dit Les Henry, 83840 Brenon
The entrance to the village of Brenon, hidden behind the hill, is necessarily by the road to the hamlet of Les Henry and the fountain, in the outpost, marks the village.
In 1900, the Municipality of Brenon built this fountain at the entrance of the hamlet of Les Henry. It was only intended to supply the few dwellings in the hamlet, making it practically a private fountain. But the entrance to the village of Brenon is also by this road and the fountain, in the outpost, marks the village.
This structure has the configuration of two rectangular basins in a row, to which two other basins serving as watering troughs were later added.
We can also note the zoomorphic distribution cannons, in the shape of a ram's head and a sheep's head.
