Corks Out Delivery Chute

The other day I was walking past Corks Out on Watergate Street and their side door was open, showing the delivery chute down which barrels of wine would have been rolled when they arrived. I guess the chute dates from around the 12th century, and nothing has really changed at all, although wine now tends to be delivered already bottled rather than being done on the premises.
