Water tower built in 1982. Fairly high, free-standing and widening water tower with a round tub. The lower part is made up of six thin concrete piers placed radially around a central glazed shaft with an iron spiral staircase.

Water tower built in 1982 according to the design plans of architects G. and D. Bontinck from Ghent (works carried out by contractor NV Van Roey). The building was inaugurated on September 25, 1982, see memorial plaque to the left of the entrance with the inscription "TMVW/ THIS WATER TOWER/ WAS INDICATED ON 25-09-1982/ by/ MINISTER J. LENSSENS/ (…)/ DESIGNER/ ARCHITECTS G. & D. BONTINCK/ CONTRACTOR/ NV VAN ROEY". Fairly high, free-standing water tower with a round tub that widens towards the top. Superstructure formed by a tub with blind brick masonry above low circumferential band windows. Preserved metal windows. Arched projecting porch with glazed, metal double doors under a concrete canopy.
