Synopsis
Excerpt from Pipe and the Public Welfare
The fact that no record is found of the pro duction or use of iron pipe during the three hundred and fifty years following this date, however, leads to the conclusion that if made at all it was in very limited quantities, and up to the seventeenth century the pipe most commonly used throughout England and France was of cast lead or bored logs.
