The water tower on Holy Island is a prominent landmark seen when arriving from the mainland. However it is fairly inaccessible, the easiest access being up this private road from the small school. As it is a private road, one does not wish to intrude or hang around too long composing the perfect picture. As one approaches the tower it becomes more difficult to obtain a good picture in landscape format that gets in the top of the tower and also provides some locational context.
