The design of this type of holder consist of a floating piston, that required inspection of the seals on a regular basis. Basically climb the ouside to the very top, enter through the crown on to a platform containing a lift to lower you onto the piston itself. Basically you need to see what your doing.
@@stevelambert6689 Steve, I really apprecate your answer. I even sent that question to a London radio station once and never got an answer. Many thanks and Merry Christmas.
Yeah, i felt that way when they demolished two of the three Granton gas holders in Edinburgh. I miss seeing all three of them. The remaining one is retained, and getting used as a public space/park.
Some of them had windows at the top and I've never understood why.

Pure mindless architectural vandalism. Just because it became surplus to operational requirements, was no reason to dismantle this fine structure
