The tank is raised well above the ground and the base area is open-sided, so it does NOT form a usable internal space. The only reason that these structures have been classified as 'Tank Houses' (rather than 'tanks') is that they are labelled 'Tank House' on the 1911 land plan used to create the draft structure list (which formed the starting point for the SCRCA Project).
SCRCA Location Variant: Tank Support - Base open-sided
Examples
The following examples from the SCRCA Project database illustrate this location variant. Locations are only displayed here if they have been 'assessed' and if a default image is available. Show / hide tips
- The locations are grouped by 'type' (where appropriate), then sorted by Location ID.
- To view the full Location Summary for one of the sites or structures, click on the relevant location name / description.
- To view a larger version of one or more of the images in a slideshow format, click on one of the thumbnail images.
NB: The slideshow will NOT run on devices with a screen width of less than 400px, or if you attempt to open it in a new window. - To view details of ALL the locations of this type in the database (regardless of their status etc.), use the Gazetteer.
