Description

The drawings are comprised of a section showing the railings and the overflow, and a plan of the reservoir, with the distance across it labelled at various points. The original is annotated with notes and labels relating, among other things, to its capacity, which is given as 120,000 gallons. There are later pencil annotations on the original from 1927. The drawings were probably created by the Office of Works.
