Lawton Reservoir, 96 Byron Street, M-roofed timber trusses on cast iron columns, also by Leslie in 1874, distributes water into Lochee and western Dundee, supplemented by an addition of 1911 below a turf and concrete roof. This feeds into [DE22] a tower disguised as a doocot on the other side of Law Hill, built in 1922 for the Stirling Avenue District Heating Scheme on

those slopes.
