Lovely spot for a lunch time picnic. Well maintained

I found this tower to be industrial yet beautiful, its subtle ways of turning even concrete to a exquisite artwork is more than alluring. My favourite part was that every person who had been here had left their mark in the form of penmanship, some signatures date back to the later century and there were many declarions of love which set a very romantic ambience. I would recommend this quaint tower to anyone in the area.

It was not for the faint hearted I say but its spectacular view of Hawera

Always drove past but this time stopped. Appears closed but can get a key from info centre next door at $2.50 per person. Built in 1914 to provide water for fire brigade. Gothic style windows it is high but easy to climb although no handrails in some places. Compensation for the climb is the spectacular views at the top. Children love to throw paper darts from the top.

Certainly worth the climb. Take your time and enjoy the view!

Even though it look a bit boring from the outside, once you make your way to the top of this tower, trust me, you get one of the best panoramic views of Taranaki district. There is a small fee to get up there but it's worth the money.

Awesome history on this place inside the information centre. Very knowledgeable staff as well

Strange is the best way to describe it. You have to pick up a key to enter from the i-Site for a small fee. Then you climg up some dirty concrete steps into the tower, all the way to the top. Views are mediocre, but taller than anything else in the area (except Mt Taranaki of course)

Did not go in. Lit up at night. Worth a drive past. Entry $2.50

Good views of Hawera and nice to learn a bit more of the history of the tower, but it's not really something I would need to do again.
