Lovesome Hill water tower

Surely the aspiration of any sane man in modern Britain is to own his own water tower.
Just checking out a few details regarding listed building status and duties of maintenance though the Northern Echo headline about how a local landmark may disappear suggest otherwise. After our failure to get the arches today the fact that the auction takes place at Elland Road suggests righteousness. What to do with it once we have it is a different matter.
Anyway, we're off up to climb the beast before the 18th and talk to the estate agents about what developements are possible.
At the same auction, yorkshire water are selling off Wheldrake water tower, estimate on this one is £20 000, well out of our range but me and Kipper aim to scale this one too. Only accessible by track so no vehicular access.
