Water Storage Tower In Courtyard On South East Side Of Childwick Bury Manor

The water storage tower, located in the courtyard on the southeast side of Childwick Bury Manor, was built in the late 18th century and is designed in a Gothic style. It is constructed from red brick with stone dressings and has a circular plan with a stone plinth. The tower is a single storey and features a doorway on the southeast side, which is framed by a large roll-moulded surround with an ogee head and a cusped tympanum above it. There is a stone band at the first floor level, and the flanking walls are adorned with deep stone quatrefoil openings. Below these openings, the plinth rises to form round stone spouts.
