Disused Structure on Pitfour Estate

This low structure is water-related - there were some pipes and what looked like an old ballcock inside. It will no doubt have had something to do with the old reservoirs nearby. Just SouthEast of this spot is a fenced-off area containing a rather mundane new covered reservoir, and a far more impressive (albeit far smaller) curved concrete tank-style one. Strangely, this tiny building makes it onto the current large-scale OS map, but the functioning covered reservoir does not.
