This gleaming 4-legged silver watertower is located at Maypearl, Texas.
I discovered this one while hunting a nearby benchmark.
Maypearl is on Farm Road 66 ten miles southwest of Waxahachie in western ellis County. The settlement, orginally called Eyrie, had a post office from 1894 to 1903. The name was changed to Maypearl on June 25, 1903, in honor of the daughters of the two officials of the International-Great Northern Railroad, which had recently reached the settlement.
