Trelissick Water Tower
The Water Tower at Trelissick was built in 1865 in Victorian over-engineering style as a water reservoir for the house. Its height was designed to provide high enough water pressure to fight fires effectively, which were clearly of concern. It has since been converted to a holiday cottage with one circular room on each of four floors connected by a narrow spiral staircase.
