Santo Crimp, C.E., was an eminent drainage engineer. He achieved certain fame, not to say notoriety, in Warminster, during the late 1880s, in connection with the suggestion proposed by Mr. W.F. Morgan (Chairman of the Warminster Urban District Council) that Warminster’s sewage be pumped to Beggar’s Bush (a field north of Woodcock and the railway), at Imber Road. Santo Crimp was also consulted by the Sanitary Committee of Bristol, in 1897, with regards a sewage disposal scheme for the city. He died in April 1901.
