It's also known to the locals as "The burst eyeball" and "the giant quim". On seeing it recently, a relative of mine from Canada was prompted to mention the city which boasts the world's largest beaver.Jscb (talk) 10:59, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Other nicknames
It's also referred to as 'The Cornish Pasty', and less pleasantly, 'The Ruptured Scrotum'. It sounds like a toilet flushing when it's in action.

I am sure I read somewhere that the design has nothing to do with Percy Shelly, and the fountain was originally designed for the town of Cambridge, but it ended up in Horsham. Pikko-Pie (talk) 14:34, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

Council
Can someone add in who was on the local council at the time that the sculpture went in.

They deserve some credit for accepting the work that Cambridge had rejected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.145.181.66 (talk) 18:26, 25 May 2012 (UTC)
