The history of the Pipe Walk
12th century Bristol, the Lord Manor of Bedminster gave a historic natural freshwater spring in Knowle to St Mary Redcliffe parish to create the city’s first clean water sippy via underground lead pipes.
Every October people walk the ‘pipe walk‘ as they have done for the last 800 years.
