Ivy Conduit, Coombe, is a seventeenth-century water management structure located in Surrey. The conduit represents an important example of early modern hydraulic engineering, serving to convey water across the landscape for domestic or estate purposes. Built during a period when such infrastructure was increasingly refined and systematised, it reflects the growing sophistication of water supply systems in the early modern period. The structure survives as a testament to the practical engineering solutions employed by landowners and communities in managing water resources.
