Description

The city of Exeter was one of the great provincial capitals of late medieval and early modern England; possessing a range of civic amenities fully commensurate with its size and importance. Among the most impressive of these was its highly sophisticated system of public water supply; including a unique network of underground passages. Most of these ancient passages still survive today.Water in the City provides a richly illustrated history of Exeters famous underground passagesmdash;and of Exeterrsquo;s system of public water supply during the medieval and early modern periods. Illustrated with full colour throughout; Mark Stoyle shows how and why the passages and aqueducts were originally built; considers the technologies that were used in their construction; explains how they were funded and maintained; and reveals the various ways in which the water fountains were used and abused by the townsfolk.
