What is recorded here

Stone water tank on rectangular- plan, constructed c.1820, now disused. Constructed of cut limestone blocks with tapered sides having a flight of cut-stone steps built into the north elevation. Located within extensive complex of outbuildings, just to the south of Kinturk House (15302016).
An interesting and well-built structure that forms part of a large courtyard of estate buildings previously within the Kinturk House Demesne. The structure is unused and overgrown but is of technical interest. Originally the water tank was supplied with rainwater collected from the roof of the building to the northeast (15302011) and piped across the entrance gates (15302014) through a cast-iron pipe supported on cast-iron brackets.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
