What is recorded here
Whitwell water tower is a castle, fort or tower in North Hertfordshire, England. Perhaps it stood as a quiet sentinel over the fields, watching carts and children pass below. Maybe the water inside cooled the summer heat or filled a kettle on a cold morning. Imagine the tower belonging to nobody and everyone at once, a simple shape that still commands the sky.
