The Grade II listed Linton Water Tower on Rivey Hill, Linton, was built in 1935-6 as part of the Linton water scheme and is a striking example of Art Deco design.
It was constructed in brick rather than concrete, in order to harmonise with the landscape.
The dodecagonal brick exterior has a monumental presence, in its prominent and exposed position on Rivey Hill and the landmark’s sculptural quality is enhanced by its 12 tapering buttresses.
