"The Tanks in existence having pipes therefrom, are those at Glenealy, Wyndham Street, and Union Chapel; namely, Glenealy 25% feet above the sea, containing 30,000 gallons. A 6-inch main is taken to Glencaly Gate, one branch service pipe is thence taken to Government House, and another 4-inch pipe proceeds to the summit of Caine Road, 223 feet above the sea, from which a 3-inch pipe is laid down passing
