Another Failed To Sell At Auction property. Unique in so many ways. Possibly the price tag was a little ambitious, but as it didn’t sell, then the owner may have some flexibility as to what would be an acceptable number! Though to be fair it does have PLANNING PERMISSION in place to convert into a 4 bedroom home. Auctioneer’s Narrative: Victorian sandstone water tower constructed in the Romanesque Revival style, with nine masonry piers arranged in a square plan. Each side has two full height arches with stepped surrounds and arch bands, with the tower standing approximately 17 metres (56 feet) in height. The top of the tower benefits from views over the surrounding countryside. A photo from onatop can be found here – eeek – a bit high and scary. Best someone build a house in the clouds here soon then.
