Covered reservoir
The higher ground on the Devizes Road makes for an ideal location for the installation of a reservoir. The site dates from the latter part of the 1800s but the boarded 'house' is clearly post-war. See Image] for the building to the right of shot.

Fisherton Water Works
A modern brick building on the Devizes Road actually dates from the mid/late-1800s. It is part of the site that includes a covered reservoir and various pipes and valves. The site was open fields in the past, with a few prehistoric, Iron Age and Roman discovered. In 1866 some human remains were discovered close by and at the time a number of industries were started up; the local soil is chalky and hence there were chalk pits and brick kilns that flourished in the latter 1800s, but were largely finished by the turn of the century. See Image] for a view of some of the pipework.
