Water conduit dated 1519 on recut stone and rebuilt in the 19th century; it was apparently dated 1840 according to the previous list description. Local stone rubble with sandstone dressings. Roughly square in plan with battered walls tapering to embattled parapet (`renovated' with concrete in the 1980s). North side is particularly tall since it is built up from the lower level of College Way. South side contains a blocked niche for the tap. East side has a plaque carved with the civic seal and the date 1519 (it was recut in the 1980s).
