Meanings
plural downspoutings
- A downspout.
Grass and weeds had a good hold in the gutters and were choking the drains. Leaves had blocked downspoutings so that more grass, and even small bushes, grew in cracks and in the silt in the roof gutterings.
1951, John Wyndham, The Day of the Triffids, Harmondsworth: Penguin Books, published 1954, page 230
