an iron contrivance

In this undated postcard photo of the Place du Midi in La Ferté-Macé, towards the bottom right one can see a woman in an apron leaning over some sort of "iron contrivance" (Enormous Room 157). Could this be the pump where C and his fellow inmates went to "catch water"? For a possible answer, continue on to "an iron contrivance . . . "  (page 2).
