Former Walsall Conduits, Narrow Lewins Mead, Bristol

This site may have been a sugar house in the 18th century, although there were no premises in the area linked to sugar by 1835. Sugar and tobacco were imported commodities to west coast towns like Bristol, and the abolition of slavery in the early 19th had a profound affect on these.
