Sorry for a crap first post but it may be of some interest. Just happened to pass it as I went to take pictures of the locks!
Originally built between 1805 and 1825 as a pumping house to provide water for the Tardebigge Locks. A James Watt beam engine lifted water by 60 feet. The pump operated until the 1930s when the system fell into disrepair.
