Then before that a book from the 1860’s. And I thought the same thing. How on earth when the beautiful lavish clothes are explained did they go to the bathroom. And visiting someone, did you bring your own pot???? I adore the romance of period piece novels but boy it must have smelled just awful.

Who knew I’d be so wrapped up in a blog post about the history of toilets but I couldn’t stop reading and I’m not much of a reader. I’ll definitely be coming back to read more. Thank you

Hi Josephine, I’m pleased you liked the post. Unfortunately, I don’t have the list of the pumps, but I used this website to pick some: http://www.villagepumps.org.uk/ Hope this helps.

I’m currently on my own pilgrimage to find all Holy Wells and springs around my area and now that has expanded to include pumps. I can tell you why they are near churches, they were holy sites once- pagan or pre Christian and once the missionaries came the Church wanted to convert water worship to Christianity that’s why they included’Holy Water’ in their sermons. Do you have a list of all the pumps you’ve visited? I’d love to see them. My Instagram is water_pilgrim
