This was probably once a wonderful fountain. It's water cascading down the limestone. Unfortunately, the water no longer flows.

This non working fountain is constructed of limestone in what appears to have been a cone. The limestone was supported by several metal plates which have rusted and collapsed in places. The edges of the concrete pool are surrounded by what appears to be petrified wood.
Neither limestone nor petrified wood are native to this area, which makes this such a loss.
The plant has been closed for several years, the water seen in the pool is rain water. It needs to be cleaned out as it is full of trash and debris.
