Conduit Head (also known as Conduit Meadow)

Introduction

To the west of Avery Hill Park and behind Holy Trinity Church and adjacent housing, is a small area of public open space that contains remnants of the medieval brick Conduit Head, which once housed a weir arrangement controlling the supply of water to the moat at Eltham Palace, later used to provide water to the palace itself. The small site consists of open amenity grass, with some perimeter trees.
