The Imperial Fountain is located at the east end of the Broad Walk on the south side of Imperial Square.
The inscription regarding the Imperial Fountain reads as follows:
"According to tradition, this marble fountain was looted from Italy by the French in 1800. It was captured by the English while on its way to France and later sold to a Cheltenham solicitor, Thomas Henney. In 1826 Henney installed the fountain in a pavilion near the Imperial Spa, now the site of the Queen's Hotel. In 1834 it was moved to the Montpellier Gardens. It was repaired in 1902 and put on display in the Town Hall until 1926, when it was moved to the public library. It has now been restored and is on loan from Cheltenham Art Gallery & Museums."
