Conduit (Saint-Paul, Domaine de Villèle, 2019)
3072

This north-south conduit discovered in Test Pit 18 has two facings of irregular blocks joined with beige lime mortar. Small and large non-contiguous slabs cover the base of the conduit. The location of this drain network suggests it evacuated water from the eastern gable wall of the longhouse; the 1820 conduit is aligned with it.
