Description
Vogue Shute is a water shute located in St Day, dating from the 17th to 19th century. It features granite walls constructed from dressed blocks laid to course and is designed in an L-plan. This structure is a very rare surviving example of a shute, with a retaining wall built alongside the ramped access for carts. It is recorded in the manor papers from the 17th century and served as the principal source of drinking water for the community until the 1930s.
