Description
CHUDLEIGH NEW EXETER STREET, Chudleigh SX 8679 6/66 Section of wall opposite Nos 61 and 61A
- II
Section of wall containing dipping place for drinking water. Probably late C190 Local grey limestone rubble with dressed coping stones. Tall stone rubble wall with a round-headed niche to the right. A system for bringing water to Chudleigh town from the lower slopes of Haldon was in existence at the end of the C16: both the supply system and the water known as 'Pot Water'. In 1867 William Bower Scott presented a refinement of this system to the Parish to improve the supply of water as both for cooking and extinguishing fires. Crockett, A. Chudleigh, a chronicle (1985), p. 110-111.
