The Old Pump House at the Cropston Water Treatment Works was built in 1870, it once housed two great beam engines which pumped clean water from Cropston Reservoir into the Leicester water supply system. After restoration, it is now a location for weddings, conferences, and social events with an onsite bar and restaurant.
