#History relating to #England mainly
#Plumbing #Plumber who was the first plumber? To provide houses with clean running water, and to remove waste water, many things needed to happen, including the people to do them.
So while researching #WaterWorks I realise there is an extra human question to all this.
( Would also relate to installing gas and electricity in homes, but water is my concern)
So the building of reservoirs and waterworks pre 1850 would probably not include water to home (1)

#History #Census #Uk #England Within my own family history, we have a lot of Victorian Agricultural Labourers ( mid to east Kent) We all know the epic stories of people moving to cities to work in factories. Some of my ancestors moved from country to work in shops. But I'm not aware of anyone training to work in skills like plumbing #plumbing
