And I bet you're right that a number of trades that they housed there needed the water. A shame we don't have dual systems still.....<br /><br />Carla, it's a pretty cool place!<br />orenetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10616103982088424715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-64057270855539118482014-03-06T18:57:40.266-08:002014-03-06T18:57:40.266-08:00Wow!

I can think of a few trades where a lot of water would be involved. Leather making?

I was pretty stunned too, I do wonder what the bits inside were like, but they were working pretty hard at having lots of water, so it may have been kinda clean.
