The tower was built to supply the neighbouring Tranby Croft mansion with water. Tranby Croft, now part of Hull Collegiate School, was famed in the late 19th century for being the scene of a notorious gambling scandal involving Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, the future King Edward VII. These buildings now contain small business units.
