Neptune Fountain, Cheltenham, 19th century fountain on The Promenade in Cheltenham, England.
The Neptune Fountain features a stone sculpture of Neptune in a shell-chariot with four sea-horses and mermen blowing conch shells beside him.
The fountain was inaugurated on October 30, 1893, during a ceremony with local dignitaries and music from the Town Band.
The fountain incorporates classical mythology elements through Neptune's figure, his trident, and marine creatures carved in Portland stone.
Visitors can observe the fountain outside the Municipal Buildings, with several bus stops and parking facilities located within walking distance.
The structure receives its water supply directly from the River Chelt, which flows underneath the fountain through subterranean channels.
