Drummoyne Reservoir
Historic site in New South Wales, Australia
About
Drummoyne Reservoir is a heritage-listed decommissioned elevated service reservoir located on Rawson Avenue, Drummoyne, New South Wales, a suburb of Sydney, Australia. It was designed by engineer J. G. S. Purvis from the Metropolitan Board of Water Supply and Sewerage and built from 1910 to 1913, with the Board responsible for the construction of the substructure and Poole & Steele Ltd responsible for the tank manufacture. It is also known as WS0038 and Drummoyne Elevated Steel Reservoir. It was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 15 November 2002. Sydney Water sold the property in September 2018 to owners of a chain of childcare centres, who plan to convert the site into a childcare centre while retaining most of the heritage structure.
