Potentially a landmark but not much of interest, it's a fairly plain looking fountain.

Laura Place Fountain, right in the middle of a roundabout at Great Pulteney Street and Henrietta Street, is a charming spot in Bath. Built in 1877 to celebrate the Bath and West of England Society, it was meant to be a grand column but was changed into a fountain. The design is simple but elegant, with a square basin and a central pedestal topped with a lead ball. Over the years, it’s faced some damage, especially from traffic, but it's been restored a few times. Despite being in the middle of a busy roundabout, it still manages to be a peaceful little corner where you can take in some of Bath’s beautiful Georgian architecture. It’s a nice place to stop for a moment of calm in the city.

Unfortunately many parked cars but still nice to see while out walking.
