Appleton Water Tower, Victorian water tower in Sandringham, England.
The Appleton Water Tower rises 60 feet high with red and yellow bricks, featuring a cast-iron tank and three distinct floor levels.
Engineers constructed this water supply structure in 1877 to resolve health issues affecting the royal family at Sandringham House.
Foundation stones of the tower contain marks from junior members of the British Royal Family, marking their connection to this engineering project.
The Landmark Trust maintains the tower as a holiday accommodation, offering visitors three floors of living space with modern amenities.
The second floor houses a viewing platform above the water tank, providing panoramic views across the Norfolk countryside.
