 Gas was first supplied in the 1960s when a gas main to Chew Magna was routed through East Dundry passing from Bristol along the track north of North Hill Farm, down the hamlet’s lane to Cross Cottage, down in the field at the west end of Cross Cottage’s garden, along the road past Spring Farm and up the track towards Rattledown Farm.In a few years every joint of this relatively high-pressure-gas steel pipeline had to be resealed when the supply was converted from town to natural gas.Later the pipeline was reduced in pressure to minimise gas losses and only served East Dundry.
