From the Wikipedia article
Dunkeld market cross (colloquially Dunkeld mercat cross, also known as the Atholl Memorial Fountain), in the Scottish town of Dunkeld, Perth and Kinross, is in the form of a drinking fountain. A Category B listed structure in the care of the National Trust for Scotland, it was designed by Charles Sandeman Robertson and erected in 1866 as a monument to the George Murray, 6th Duke of Atholl. It replaced a cross that was about 20 feet (6.1 m) high, with four iron jougs attached to it. The fountain stands in a triangular plot between The Cross (to the north and west) and High Street (to the south and east).
