SJ7661 : Former Sandbach Waterworks building
taken 9 years ago, near to Sandbach, Cheshire East, England
Former Sandbach Waterworks building
Old maps show this area as a waterworks. According to Stewart Green's local history site
Link , both the water (abstraction) works here, and the sewage works further downstream, were opened in 1891 at the same time that the Dingle fishing lake was formed.
This was presumably the administrative building. By 2014 it was derelict and planning permission (Ref 12/1650C) was granted for its demolition, removal of water treatment storage and settlement tanks, and construction of 12 two-storey detached dwellings. See also
