This is a Govt. scheme (basically achieved by covering the cost of liability insurance) by which property owners can open places not normally open to the public although lots of regular attractions also take part and most have free entrance during the Heritage Days.
For water tower enthusiasts, the Earls Colne Heritage Museum will be open on 13 & 14 September.
The ECHM tell us although there isn't a water tower there, at the Museum of Power, Langford www.museumofpower.org.uk , there is a strong link with water and one of the enormous pump engines is still in situ and worth a viewing. The pump is one of several that was part of the water supply system to Southend. The museum has a wealth of items of interest, with free entry on Heritage Days.
