Description
The water tower, located approximately 30 metres to the north-west of Pepper Arden Hall, dates from the mid to late 19th century. It is constructed of red brick with yellow-brick banding and features a stone slate roof. Designed in the style of an Italian campanile, the tower has a square plan. It includes a plinth from which rise giant corniced angle pilasters that flank round-arched recessed panels. The south-west elevation features a central segmental-arched door opening at the base, along with a small single-light segmental-arched opening with a consoled sill above. The tower has a stepped and cogged cornice with a stone band. Above this, there is a blind tripartite window with round-headed arches, where the central light has a segmental-arched opening. The stone cornice is adorned with consoles, and the structure is topped with a pyramidal roof that includes a weather-vane. The tower is a prominent feature in the landscape.
