how come when doing a google image search for liscard water tower you get this?

I think it was the original water tower but has been
replaced by the one in New Brighton. It is listed see:-

Maybe he's into water sports?

Perhaps he was a wrestler who frequented the New Brighton wrestling circuits back in the 50s/60s and that was his stage name.

Perhaps he was planning to poison the water or bomb the building!

I live right by it.I like it except it blocks out a big chunk of the night sky from my yard.A lazy star gazers nightmare.And the kestrels that usually nest in the top right corner of your first pic are amazing to watch as the teach there young to hunt.

I know you can't get into it. Every window (none of them have glass in) have bars over, iron plates welded over the bars and bricks behind the bars. Front door has CCTV watching it and about a billion padlocks.

with all that security, there is clearly a nuclear silo at the end of my road. or they might use it as a very large cucumber store

I'm sure I've seen an old picture of St Alban's Church with a pool or pond next to it - was the water tower built on that? And if so, how has the pool been contained so that the surrounding area isn't permanently waterlogged? And was that pool anything to do with the mill that gave Mill Lane its name?

few pics of the doorway and the side

The pond was actually part of Littledale's Model Farm and lay in front of the farm manager's house which still stands in Eldon Road. It was originally created by the extraction of clay for the bricks from which the farm buildings were built. It was filled in when the shops at 42-58 Mill Lane and the adjoining houses in Rullerton Road and Eldon Road were built.

would love to get in there. come on you ue team, new volunteer here. plus i live almost next to it so tea and scones afterwards. nah, beer and kebabs really
