Conduit Road, Abingdon
In the bottom left corner of the grid square this road is named after the conduit that ran in line with the present road. The conduit brought the spring water from Albert Park to a fountain in Ock Street where this photo was taken.
Ruskin (Slade Professor of of Art at Oxford from 1869) lodged here for some months in early 1871 whilst working on illuminated mss. at the Bodleian Library.
