A Visit To Jumbo

Some of our members took the opportunity to climb up inside the  water tower in January 2023. The Colchester and North East Essex Building Preservation Trust, who are now the lease holders, hosted two parties of members  on this visit and others, who did not feel up to the long climb, were given a talk afterwards in the Mercury Theatre Cafe on the history of the water tower and the plans for the future.
