How To Disguise A Water Tower And Confuse The Public [PICS]
deputy-dog.com — walking towards the ‘house in the clouds’ in suffolk for the first time can be a confusing experience if you approach from the right angle as the otherwise normal-looking home appears to either float above the trees or perch on a non-existant hill behind the surrounding greenery.

- RealmDown, on 02/29/2008, -1/+20I just hope the plumbing is distinctly separate.
- Shockerusa, on 02/29/2008, -2/+8"Bathroom with WC, bath and electric shower." WTF? Electric shower??
- mrhahn, on 02/29/2008, -0/+7Power shower? One that uses electricity to heat/pump the water...
- Haecceity, on 02/29/2008, -3/+8You must be American, but I can understand the confusion. It means a shower that heats cold water as it passes through rather than by taking hot water from a tank.
- diggenerate, on 02/29/2008, -12/+8It has nothing to do with being an American, we have tank-less water heaters in the U.S. however, unfortunately we also have a lot of morons.
- rnelsonee, on 02/29/2008, -0/+7Although for this house, it's not necessarily used to heat the water, but to pump it. The irony of course is that the reason that this particular house needs a pump is because the house is located at a higher altitude that the town's water tower. As such, gravity can't be used to provide pressure up to the shower nozzle.
- kewidogg, on 02/29/2008, -2/+3F that, I am no moron but I do live in cheap college houses, and had never heard of such a thing. These houses were made years before that idea came along
- mourne, on 02/29/2008, -2/+2Considering the major majority of houseing in the U.S. using water heater / tanks, I don't think anyone should be considered a moron for not knowing bout them. I already knew what it was, but had never heard the term 'electric shower'.
- cawpin, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1Speaking of morons...Are you sure it isn't a minor majority?

- Joshuarr, on 02/29/2008, -3/+73You don't have to disguise a water tower to confuse the public, it's much easier than that..
- MikeL123, on 02/29/2008, -1/+28Water tower? I don't see a water tower, that's just a really tall house!
- majordickhead, on 02/29/2008, -17/+3That is the point of a disguise... so you don't see it. However it used to be a water storage tank:

- slvrbullet87, on 02/29/2008, -1/+13They definately went over the top to make it less ugly, most of the time they just make them look like golf balls, or the smiley face.
- shadowspawn, on 02/29/2008, -1/+5I winced when I saw the pool table. That's quite a bit of a walk for those slabs.
- mechman, on 02/29/2008, -9/+3If only I owned a place like this, if not to pick up chicks with, "That's right, sweety, I have a five-story house and I never have to worry about a water bill."
- mooseontheloose, on 02/29/2008, -0/+33I don't think that line is as irresistible as you think it is
- ih8ualot, on 02/29/2008, -13/+1Does it really take much to capitalize, deputy-dog.com? It's really not that difficult. The shift key is right there.

- ahawks, on 02/29/2008, -0/+9Yes, and the radioactive ickiness will surely contaminate the water supply!! NOOO!!!
You won't believe this, but your sewage lines even run RIGHT UNDER YOUR FLOOR!
Sorry, I'm feeling like a bit of an ***** today
- ahawks, on 02/29/2008, -0/+9Yes, and the radioactive ickiness will surely contaminate the water supply!! NOOO!!!
- Mothity, on 02/29/2008, -6/+16It's not a water tower, it's a converted wind-mill. Been there before.
- ieatsmurfs, on 02/29/2008, -2/+5wrong!
"Originally intended to provide an adequate storage capacity for a basic water supply for Thorpeness village."- gabeknuth, on 02/29/2008, -1/+0Yeah, no kidding. Way to be, know-it-all. Maybe you were at another house in the sky? Or maybe not...
http://www.houseintheclouds.co.uk/history.html - Mothity, on 03/01/2008, -0/+1Suffolk is famous for its windmills, after going there a few times in recent years in family holiday's you get to know this kinda stuff. The House In The Sky has information boards outside it saying it used to be a mill. That's unsurprising, as Suffolk is really flat so the wind from the sea sweeps across pretty much unbroken by the landscape (hence the reason for the county being dotted with windmills really frequently). The house also happens to be right next to a boating lake.
