What is recorded here

Detached octagonal-profile water tower on square-plan base, built c. 1880, to serve barracks. Conical roof, covering not distinguishable, with central spike finial. Coursed rock-faced limestone walls, having string course and corbels to octagonal upper walls, with battered base. Square-headed slit window with sill to south. Full-height coursed stone chimneystack to west face. Situated within walls of former barracks.

This interesting and attractive water tower forms part of a group with the barracks walls. The use of rock-faced stone creates a textured surface, which compensates for the lack of openings in such a structure.
