Question - Clifton Water Tower

[fxckexplore]

Was up by the Clifton water tower tonight and noticed it was abandoned, has anyone attempted this or does anyone know why people haven’t been successful in getting to the top?

The one on the downs? Probably because its well sealed/alarmed due to the amount of RF kit on the roof

It’s in use as a mast for telecommunications companies - probably just civil stuff but will almost certainly be alarmed.

It’s a bit empty in the grounds of it, but the treatment basin has been filled in so you can get some decent views. It’s a nice easy mini explore if you go on a sunny day!

A grey concrete water tower of 1954 stands on the Bristol Downs near the top of Blackboy Hill, with a long, low, covered reservoir alongside it. More pictures at https://visual-sound.blogspot.com/2016/09/the-abandoned-clifton-downs-water-tower.html - Coordinates: 51°28'19"N 2°37'4"W
