Pumping Station, Brickyard Lane, Farnsfield, Notts.
This water pumping station, seen from Brickyard Lane, was officially declared open on 5 August 1898 and is still in use. It was built at the head of a 54ft well with an engine house (containing two steam-powered beam engines capable of pumping 480,000 gallons a day), a cooling pond and a reservoir at Newhall Farm, Edingley, about 11.5 miles away. The reservoir was built to hold 11.5m gallons of water pumped from here, it then being piped by gravitation to a service reservoir on Beacon Hill at Newark. From Beacon Hill, the water was piped to private subscribers and businesses around Newark. In 1902 a second reservoir was constructed on Beacon Hill, followed by the erection of a second pumping station in the 40s and the partial replacement of the old steam engines by oil-driven plant. Steam pumping here continued to some degree into the mid-60s only to be superseded by electricity after its management was taken over by Severn Trent in 1973. A 1948 aerial photograph of “The Newark Corporation (Farnsfield) Waterworks” can be seen on the following webpage: http://www.britainfromabove.org.uk/image/eaw010447. Apparently the steam-warmed water in the cooling pond made it suitable for use as a swimming pool by villagers.
