Water Pump:![Water Pump - Duford House](images/borderedpics/duford/watpumpfr.jpg)
Imagine not even having a running water
in your house. This house had a pump and they were lucky to have had it inside their house
and not in the backyard. This pump would have been used to get water for everything;
cooking, cleaning, washing clothes, just like we use our sinks today. However, unlike many
of us they would only have a pump in one room in their house. Another thing to consider
would be the quality of the water. Considering how much care goes in to purifying drinking
water today. It is scary to think about this not being done. |
