The Rundle Mall Fountain is over 100 years and flowing strong despite the lack of recent rain.

Ornate and representative of an early part of Adelaide’s history this fountain has not always lived in its current location in from of the Adelaide Arcade.

As a youngster we would use ‘The Fountain’ as a designated meeting place at the intersection of Rundle Street and Gawler Place”.

The ‘Mall’s Balls’ have now replaced that old role but it is still good to see the old fountain alive and flowing.
