This structure is of late C12 origin and is not what one expects to find just off a select close in a Canterbury suburb. It is situated at the point where several streams at the boundary of the Thanet Sands and Chalk join up after being channelled through the four conduits seen here. Their waters then descended by gravity to St Augustine’s Abbey at the foot of the hill. See http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/conduit-house/history/ for further details.
