One of these https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Bubbler.jpg It's not ornamental or decorative. It's a drinking fountain, not a fountain. This old drinking fountain is harder to classify: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Fountain_Snow_Hill_Samuel_Gurney..jpg Technically just a drinking fountain but it is rather decorative. Is it amenity=water or amenity=fountain + drinking_water=yes? This was assumed from my side since the beginning.

They may incidentally provide drinking water or they may not. Remember that what you call a bubbler is what we call a drinking fountain. -- Paul
