Description
The remains of a reservoir are located in the north-west corner of the garth of the Cathedral Cloisters in Gloucester. This structure dates back to the early 13th century and was built alongside a drain that supplied water to the cloister and lavatorium of the former Abbey of St Peter. The reservoir is constructed of ashlar and features a rectangular chamber that is exposed at ground level. It has an inlet at the east end and a funnelled outlet at the west end. Four ashlar transverse arches span the chamber, which originally supported the cover above it.
