How many have walked past without noticing this slab in front of #Southampton Cenetaph? Daniel Beak, a locally born VC who survived to receive his medal from King George V, and lived into old age.

An early example of a conduit house, built in the early 1300s. It collected water from wells & springs for the public water supply in Southampton. It is one of the earliest known examples of a municipally controlled water supply on this scale #MedievalMonday

Faraday Tower demolition begins this week.
But #DidYouKnow that the Electrical Engineering Department originally wanted it named the Maxwell Building after James Clerk Maxwell who formulated the basic equations of electromagnetism?
Why wasn't he chosen? Well...

[Unseen Southampton @UnseenSoton]

@SotonPubs Beautiful looking building. Will have to find time to check it out.
