Water Tower....

The Water Tower

This water tower is situated in the upper section of Bournemouth Gardens....The tower was built sometime between 1883 and 1903 in order to supply water for a fountain.
The gardens start near the pier approach with the Lower Gardens and as you walk in a north westerly direction you make your way through the Central and then the Upper Gardens where you will find this water tower....


*NB: Sorry that I have neglected this blog over the past eight weeks but I have been working on a couple of projects over at my purpletraveller blog....
One of these was to complete my cycling mileage of 10,000 for the year and now that I have achieved that I should have more time to take pictures and post them here.

Congratulations upon this achievement !

Remember being once that much thirsty that I nearly did steal some milk. Yes, water towers surely are very important.
