Abstract:
This paper discusses the development in Britain and Ireland of all-metal water towers. Concentrates on towers that provided public water supplies, but also outlines parallel developments, especially in railway engineering, during the nineteenth century. After 1900, panel tanks formed of steel flanged plates generally supplanted earlier forms of tank construction found on water towers and it was not until the 1950s that other, more pleasing, styles came to be erected, although these found little favour in the water industry and few were ever built. The aesthetic and long-term maintenance problems associated with all-metal water towers are also considered.
