beside the sidewalk in the glover garden

Original Text

When I was walking near the former Nagasaki High School Omotemonesho at Glover Garden, I noticed that it was like a fire hydrant next to the sidewalk. It is said that it is the third water supply in Japan following Yokohama and Hakodate, and it was written that the ringer in the Glover Park was also involved in the water supply laying.

It seems that the water supply in Nagasaki was made in Meiji ２４ year.

　It is said that the water supply was built in Nagasaki in 1897. There is an old Walker house in the middle of the large Glover Garden, but there was this old water tap near the aisle. According to the explanation board, at that time, he was working to open this water plug every morning and close it in the evening.

It stands in Glover Park near the entrance of the moving sidewalk toward the former Mitsubishi 2nd Dockhouse. Following Yokohama and Hakodate, modern water supply passed through Nagasaki in 1891. This common plug covered with a fin and with a season was probably used at that time.

　We entered the park from the Glover Garden's ２ Gate and came down from the top to the middle of the park. As I approached the Walker House, I found this water supply plug in the Meiji era. It is said that the water supply was maintained in Nagasaki in the Meiji ２４ year. At that time, it was necessary to open the water plug in the morning and close it in the evening.

From the first gate, I entered the Glover Garden and there was this old water tap in front of the second moving sidewalk. There is an explanation board nearby. (It's hard to read because it's sarahed by wind and rain) If you stop by, the water supply facility was completed in Meiji ２４, but it seems that the clerk opened and closed such a faucet in the morning and evening, not the current system.
