The Bass Water Tower, a prominent Grade II listed landmark in Burton upon Trent, stands as a monumental vestige of the town’s Victorian industrial supremacy. Constructed in 1866, the tower was a critical component of the infrastructure for Bass, Ratcliff & Gretton, which at the time was evolving into the largest brewing concern in the world. The structure is situated off Meadowside Drive, approximately 100 metres to the rear of the former Bass Brewery offices on High Street.
The tower was designed to serve the "Old Brewery" complex of the Bass estate. During the mid-19th century, Burton upon Trent experienced an unprecedented industrial boom; between 1850 and 1880, the town's brewing capacity trebled. This expansion was driven by the global demand for India Pale Ale (IPA), a beer style that benefitted from the high calcium sulphate (gypsum) content of Burton’s groundwater. To manage the massive quantities of water required for brewing, cooling, and cleaning on such a colossal scale, sophisticated hydraulic systems were necessary. The 1866 water tower provided the required gravitational head to move water through the sprawling brewery site.
Architectural Specifications and Design
Architecturally, the tower is a "massive" example of Victorian industrial functionalism. It is constructed primarily of red brick, specifically brown brindle Staffordshire bricks laid in English bond, which were chosen for their durability and resistance to the damp conditions inherent in water storage. The tower rises in five distinct stages to a height of approximately 120 feet (37 metres).
Key architectural features include:
Plan and Elevation: The tower is rectangular in plan with stone stringcourses marking the transition between its five stages.
Fenestration: Each stage, with the exception of the topmost, features semi-circular headed windows with triple arched lights.
The Crown: The topmost stage is characterised by blind arches, a stone corbelled cornice, and a stepped parapet. A stone tablet inscribed with the date "1866" is set into the parapet.
Entrance: A deeply recessed arched doorway is located on the west side of the building.
Historical Context and Industrial Role
The tower was built during a period of intense construction overseen by William Bass, which included the "New Brewery" in 1858. By the 1870s, Bass was producing nearly one million barrels of beer annually. The water tower remained a functional part of the brewery's private utility network until the mid-20th century. While much of the surrounding "Old Brewery" was demolished in 1970 to make way for modern developments and shopping centres, the water tower was spared due to its architectural significance and was granted Grade II listed status on the 22nd June 1979.
Modern Status and Proposed Redevelopment
In the 21st century, the tower is owned by the multinational brewer Molson Coors, though it is no longer used for its original purpose. It remains closed to the general public, serving primarily as a visual landmark and a nesting site for peregrine falcons.
In recent years, the tower has become the centre of a local planning debate. A voluntary campaign group known as "Love Burton" proposed an ambitious £8.3 million scheme to transform the tower into a major tourist attraction. Their proposal includes:
The Waterfront Development: Constructing a contemporary steel, timber, and glass building around the base of the tower to house a 21st-century library, a heritage centre, and a visitor centre for the Washlands.
Viewing Platform: Installing a lift to take visitors to the top of the 120ft structure, providing panoramic views of the River Trent and the town centre.
Heritage Focus: Using the upper floors to tell the history of Burton beyond brewing, focusing on St. Modwen, and the medieval Alabaster sculpting industry.
These plans were presented as an alternative to the Burton Town Deal Board’s proposal to move the existing library into the town's Market Hall, a move that faced significant local opposition. As of 2024, the tower remains a "hidden asset," preserved as a symbol of the era when Burton upon Trent was the undisputed "Beer Capital of the World."

Mashed up basil, kosher salt, and olive oil in the small mortar and pestle. On the side are lemon wedges and grated parmesan. Lemon juice seems to be a new thing with me recently. Food need some zing? Add lemon juice! It works really well to brighten up my mock pesto with pasta.
