"The tower consisted of 3 large water tanks and one boiler chimney.
Water was pumped from the water treatment plant which contained a well and settling beds.
Water was pumped into the top tank which overflowed into the second tank and then into the third tank from which it was used. The hospital was about 2 thirds self sufficient in water and the laundry used rain water for the initial washes of clothes
The top tank also served as a fire water tank in case of fire
I was employed as an electrician and had many happy years at the hospital".
