TreeHugger‘s water tower conversion article.

There are great pictures of the modern interior – but we really just like the developer Leigh Osborne’s quote about pigeon poo.

Water towers do not make for easy conversions; there are going to be lots of stairs. London developer Leigh Osborne took a tower dating back to 1867 and converted it into “one of the most lavish and eccentric residences in the city”. It was a challenge; he tells the Penarth Times that “There were 2,000 dead pigeons in there, and poo that went up to the top of your wellies!”
