Water works, Margaret Street, Liverpool (2)
A remarkable spectacle, looming over the surrounding houses. Pevsner describes it as "one of the most impressive monuments of C19 Liverpool". The 85-foot tower (
Image]) dates from 1857, a covered reservoir having preceded it by three years (now gone). The two tiers of open arches are dramatic and open up tantalising vistas (even if nowadays they are only of back gardens). Adjoining it is a square-towered pump house, and another, added in the 1860s, stands to the left. All this is the work of Thomas Duncan, Liverpool Corporation's water engineer. Grade II listed.

Ogden's Tobacco Factory, Liverpool
Behind the pretty office block. The chimney is on a power house with two large Browett, Lindley steam engines. This is all about to be demolished as only the pretty bit is listed. Attempts to get the power house listed failed, although we are now down to only one other two engine power house of that type (and as far as I know none with more than two).
A former employee has ensured me that the mess was not typical and was probably the result of some work being carried out.

Everton Water Tower
When the old Liverpool Corporation Waterworks built the water tower on the top of Everton Hill in 1856 they created a sandstone masterpiece that dominates the area to this day. It still performs a vital role the city's water distribution system. Designed by the Liverpool's first water engineer, Thomas Duncan, it is all that is visible of the one and a half acre 12 feet deep water service reservoir. The local red sandstone hides a cast iron tank 90 feet above ground level
