    In Portugal, there are many places like this, which were commonly
    used by people and animals and were usually located outside the
    rural centres, that's why they're not so ornamented and have a more
    practical design.<br>
    If people also use this to human consumption, I would definitely tag
    it as a fountain.<br>
