Water Tower, Tower Hill, Ormskirk - West Lancashire

Water tower built between 1853-4, in the Romanesque revival style. The water tower is disused, and the water tank has been removed, leading to some issues with brickwork at high level. Conversion to residential use has been discussed, but not taken forward.
