White Conduit House, and the conduit head from which it was named, 1827

White Conduit Fields in Islington was an early venue for cricket and several major matches are known to have been played there in the 18th century.

It was the original home of the White Conduit Club, forerunner of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC). The cricket field was adjacent to the former White Conduit House, immediately south of the modern junction between Dewey Street and Barnsbury Road.
