The Water Tower is a water tower located in Coleshill, Buckinghamshire.

The tower is 30 metres (100 ft) high with an internal diameter of 5.4 metres (18 ft). Its location on the summit of a hill makes the tower something of a local landmark and it is easily visible from the M40 motorway.

In 1999 it featured on the Channel 4 programme Grand Designs.
