Right, you exploatory lot. You know the craic by now. Ride bike to a water tower, prop up a bike, take a pic, tell us where it is and anything you can about the tower.
I don't think you will get many replies on this (because there aren't many water towers!), so I will cheat and show you one from my childhood, MINUS a bike!
I was born in Kenilworth and lived there until I was 7 years old. I remembered there being a water tower not far from the Abbey Fields. I just checked and found that it was converted into an unusual luxury home in the 1970s.
