If you are interested in water towers, you should join the British Water Tower Appreciation Society.
BWTAS promotes the appreciation of water towers for their artistic, cultural, architectural, historical, social and engineering significance.
This is achieved by staging exhibitions and workshops of tower related arts and crafts, giving talks, organising tours, writing guidebooks, making posters, shooting films, creating a web site and working with schools on projects supporting the national curriculum.
The society is a forum for the exchange of information and supports members in recording their local water towers and researching into their history. It has established links with other bodies such as the Folly Fellowship and the Deutsch Internationale Wasserturm Gesellschaft.
BWTAS is currently inviting submissions for an exhibition of water tower inspired art in Blythburgh, Suffolk on 26-28 August 2006. Please contact Wil Harvey 01502 478248
Membership is £5 for adults and £1 for aged 16 and under. Applications for membership will receive a copy of ‘The Water Towers of East Anglia’ written by Nat Bocking.
Donations of £10 and over plus £3.50 p&p (£10 overseas p&p) will get an exclusive 60 x42 cm poster showing the variety of water towers in East Anglia (while stocks last).
