Wolfville Water Tower
From DARwiki
Wolfville is listed in 1873 as having a 20' x 12', gravity-fed water tank,[1], likely a square enclosed water tank similar to the Hantsport and Middleton Water Towers. A larger water tower at Grand Pre was built in June 1922 to replace the older and smaller Wolfville Water Tower.[2] The Wolfville Water Tower had disappeared by 1931, replaced by larger water towers at Grand Pre and Windsor.[3]
