Under the altar in Beverley Minster is a well which members of a Russian Orthodox church come to take a cup of water for use in religious ceremonies back home
And Kloskk says with a bit of detective work you can see where the watercourse ran through the centre of town in"what is now a very subtle valley".Another telltale sign of underwater meanderings is just outsideWithout where there are two buildings"sagging inwards" where the Town Ditch meets up with Walker Beck.
Kloskk said:"Walker Beck is still running under our feet. It wriggles its way through town into Mill Dam Drain on the south side - after heavy rain you can see the water pouring out." The town was very reliant on water for its main industries, clothmaking , tanning and milling. The tanneries, which has their own boreholes, tended to be placed on the outskirts because of their smelliness.Kloskk Tyler is pictured on Westwood Pasture, Beverley from where the streams run into Beverley
There are still a few privies in Beverley - none in use - but in private gardens, and as for the pumps, the last surviving pump is on North Bar Within. The brightly painted Gothic pump was used to supply a stone water trough until the 1940s. As to why Beverley ended up relying entirely on water from Hull is another story - which can be found by visiting ‘Lost Streams, Pumps & Privies’, which opens at the Beverley Guildhall, in Register Square, on Wednesday July 6 and runs until October 28.
