Item

Description

This infrastructure project is typical of the many handled by Lou Greenspan in the 1970s and 1980s. The field near St. Peters building and the Kieran Gatehouse near route nine had constantly been wet and damp The water collected in the field because there was a stone ridge running north and south along the main road running in front of the chapel. The field collected water not only from the rain but also from drains inserted under route nine in the nineteenth century.
