Title: Location of Tower around Hull
Post by: fleming1 on Saturday 26 September 09 19:12 BST (UK)

Hi all
Could anyone suggest a location from the photo from my post in the photo location board. Geoff E suggests its a water tower in Harrogate but as we have no connections there it would be unlikely. Any help would be great.
Regards Eric

I don't know much about the Hull area, but the picture Geoff E linked to does look remarkably similar, and the millstone grit dry stone wall would certainly be typical of the Harrogate area.

It does look like it is the Harrogate water tower built in 1902
