today I woke to a hangover totally unmeritted and unfair as I hadnt drunk too much last night. The skies were grey yet the rain heald off long enough to revisit this incredible water tower. I took the detour off the main footpath, past a burial mound encrusted in coniferous trees. The entry to a mine, tatty at the entrance to a private wood looks worth going down. Have to go back with torches and Kipper sometime soon. Once out of the woods this architectural masterpiece is clearly visible from the brow of the hill. Scaling it is out of the question but I will try to get legal permission from wessex water board to go up there. The two cones have 18 facetts each.
