B.W.T.A.S. @ Braintree, Saturday 10th October 2015

The British Water Tower Appreciation Society will have a presence at the Industrial Heritage Fair in Braintree, Essex, this coming Saturday. BWTAS has teamed up with the local Balkerne Tower Trust in order to have a stand at this event, hosted by the Essex Industrial Archaeology Group — a programme of events can be downloaded here. Entry is Free.

BWTAS will have copies of the definitive book on UK water towers: “Water Towers of Britain”, by Society President, Dr. Barry Barton, for sale at a heavily discounted price (synopsis). Also for sale will be the 2016 BWTAS Calendar — the last calendar we produced in 2012 was a sell out and became a collectors item! Brian Light of the Balkerne Tower Trust, will be giving a short talk on “Jumbo” and the Public Water Supply Industry. I'll be there too, to try to answer any water tower questions that you may have…

Time & Location:

Saturday 10th October 2015, 10:00 to 16:00
Braintree District Museum
Manor Street
Braintree
Essex CM7 3HW

Hope to see you there,
Ferrers
