I found a sketch of the layout of some medieval water conduits under Bristol which appears to show that there may be tunnels either under or very close to under our offices.
The Thistle Hotel may well have access to the Broad Street conduit, but how far it goes we don't know yet. If intact, we could probably get all the way to Colston Hall and possibly up Park Street using the underground network.
How cool is that?!

I think they're referring to the fountain more than anything but I could be wrong.
