Description
The water tower, built around 1904, features red, yellow, and blue polychrome brickwork with a lead and plain-tile roof. It is an octagonal structure with five stages. The lower stage has pairs of cast-iron windows with shallow arch heads on alternate faces, while the next three stages have single windows with tall arch head surrounds. The upper stage is corbelled out and includes a central window on each face, framed by blank arcading. Large square buttresses at the corners rise to short square pinnacles. The decorative parapet is visible, but the roof itself is not. The elevation facing the road includes a two-storey gabled porch with a plain-tile roof. There is a large arch head entrance with glazed doors, above which are three square-headed windows and a gabled parapet. The interior has not been inspected.
