This industrial heritage site showcases a remarkable example of Victorian engineering, featuring a stunning pumping station built in 1851 to supply water to the city of Manchester. The station's majestic architecture boasts a grand Italianate-style building with a striking clock tower, while its interior houses an impressive array of steam-powered pumps and machinery.
Not a part of Heaton park I would normally visit but the monument is worth it and just the sheer vastness and history I loved. Not to everyone's taste though a definitely not for children unless your planning to go into the park itself.
