Traditional, waterside pub-restaurant, serving an eclectic menu, in a converted Victorian pumphouse.
And was originally built in 1870 and has been lovingly restored as a cosy public house. The Grade II listed, newly refurbished Pump House is a relaxed and friendly venue - the perfect place for a pint with an excellent selection of dishes, including the Chef's freshly prepared seasonal Specials.
I must say here, my brother Lee and I had a cracking pint of beer and a very enjoyable meal too!

Pumphouse in Dorset, this image captured a little while after sunrise on my way back through, it takes the sun a while to get over the hills of Dorset here.
This is one of the places I quite often pass through and usually the mist has dispersed, on this particular morning a little of the mist remained. with morning sunlight through the trees.
The pumphouse is to the left on the river Tarrant, not sure of it's age.
At Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge, in Newark, California. Part of the old salt farming operation that used to go on around here, now undergoing restoration to wetlands.

The building on the left is the pumphouse and it's located in Pumphouse Park, Richmond Virginia. Anita and I walked down this long trail alongside the old canal hoping to get a photo or two of a long arched railway bridge that crossed the James River. In the end, she was able to slide down this steep embankment, cross over a set of railroad tracks and go on. I however turned back! But while she was off on her adventure I was taking more detailed photos of the pumphouse and surrounding area. All part of the last marvelous day we spent in Richmond Virginia! :)
Albert Dock was one of the first places in Britain where hydraulic power was used for cargo- handling machinery.
In the 1840s power was obtained from the town’s reservoirs nearby, and later a trial pumping station was built to the south of the warehouses. This proved to be inadequate, so in the 1870s the hydraulic pumping station was built at the north east
corner of the dock, which still stands today.
Water at high pressure was fed through underground pipes to terminals along the quaysides, and was used to power cranes, hoists and lifts.
Many of the ornate cast iron wall cranes dated from this time can still be seen on the warehouses.

Pump House – 110 Kate Street This sandstone building was built in 1903 as part of an overhaul of the town’s public works infrastructure. It supplied the town’s first water system and now houses a kayaking business. Nearby note the “Pirate” Bill Johnston historical plaque.

"F**k the Olympics 2026 The Olympics are starting, Russia is banned from participating, but not Israel. Let's remember that Israel is accused of crimes of genocide before the International Court of Justice, not Russia. F**k the Olympics."
Elan Valley Reservoir....Apparently holds some 8.000.000.000 gallons of water and has a watershed covering some 45.562 acres.
l'd love to know who measured out the water...but l'd put good money on the fact they got it wrong.

This 5 storey pumphouse was built by the Tasmanian Hydro-Electric Commission in 1940 to house turbines to pump water from Lake St Clair to the nearby St Clair Lagoon. From there the water was directed to the Tarraleah Power Station.
It was decommissioned in the 1990s and in 2004 tourism developer Simon Currant obtained a lease and began an eleven year battle to win approval to turn this into a 5 star exclusive boutique resort. On January 1st, 2015 the 18 rooms were opened for guests.

In this photograph you can just make out some snow on the tops of the trees in the forest behind the resort.
Martha Mine No 5 Pumphouse, Waihi
"The pumphouse was built in 1904 by the Waihi Gold Mining Company to house the huge 'Cornish Pump' designed to dewater the mine workings. The imposing concrete structure is now a spectacular ruin stripped of its machinery. The huge Hotham Davey pumping engine it once housed was capable of raising mine water from a depth of 472 metres at the rate of 409140 litres per hour."
