Settle Water Tower on Settle Carlisle Line

The Water Tower at Settle was recently restored and this galss room paced n the water tank!!. You can watch this channel 4 programme on the Settle Water Tower online if you live in UK  for another four weeks --but its my photo of the water tower here, taken in January. The tank held enough water for eight steam engines
