Water Tower

The water tower at Whitemoor Marshalling Yard is a late 19th-century railway structure. It is built of red brick in English bond with ashlar dressings and features a welded steel tank. The tower has a rectangular plan and its sides display blind arcades, with one bay on the north and south sides and two bays on the east and west sides. Tall round arches with plain stone imposts characterize the design. The east and west arches contain large segmentally arched windows with cast-iron frames and glazing bars, where the center panes can pivot open. Above, there is a brick cornice topped by a large rectangular welded steel tank, likely a replacement for the original. The interior has not been inspected.

Historically, March served as a passenger interchange point, while Whitemoor Yard was a significant freight marshalling center that underwent substantial modernization in 1925 by the London and North Eastern Railway, covering an area of 68 acres.
