Full Description

Intake House dated from 1314 and was built by the Greyfriars to bring water to the friary site in Grantham. The spring was owned by the Bishop of Durham, and was acquired by Greyfriars in the 14th century. After the Dissolution the conduit was extended to the Market Place by the Corporation, and Conduit House was built in 1597 (SAM 66). Intake House was a listed building, but was demolished in 1979 and subsequently delisted. It was a small square building in a field to the south of Barrowby Road, and north of Dysart Road. {1}{2}{3}{4}{5}{6}{7}{8}
