Water Pumping Station, Saltash

This unusual shaped building was built in 1968 for the East Cornwall Water Board (later South West Water). It lies at the western end of the Tamar Road Bridge, and pumps water from the water mains that are beneath the bridge up into Saltash. The four walls are all the same odd shape.
