An early example of a conduit house, built in the early 1300s. It collected water from wells & springs for the public water supply in Southampton. It is one of the earliest known examples of a municipally controlled water supply on this scale #MedievalMonday

A followup to my post of a couple of weeks ago. Here is the approach to the "gate" from Back of the Walls. Also a couple of the tiled murals on the side of Friary House. One seeming to show the friars piping fresh water to the town... – at Southampton, England

A spot of Latin spotted on the Kingsland estate. “Here and there” @andyvskinner @VisitSoton @HistoricalSoton @UnseenSoton @SotonPubs
