The new white water-tower was the largest in Europe at the time of construction. In the winter months Goole's [[gas holder]] on Anderson Road is visible across the north of the town. Many of the [[Hoist (device)|hoists]] and [[Crane (machine)|cranes]] on the dockside can be seen across the town. The [[Steeple (architecture)|steeple]] of Goole Parish Church is tall enough to be seen across the town. The townscape is made up mostly of utility and industrial structures. There is a clock tower in the main shopping district of the town, originally built in 1927 but later moved a few metres to the middle of a new roundabout with the road surface on the site of the former open-air marketplace. [[West Park, Goole|West Park]] is an Edwardian park in the town.
