That's a water tower. A great many of the Rancheros built them. The Santa Margarita Ranch is one of the few original Spanish Land Grants left pretty much intact. It was granted to Joaquin Estrada by Spain in 1841. It's an historic gem. I'm not sure but Rob may be about the 3rd owner. Even without the railroad, the barn, house and other out buildings as well as the big White Oaks are worth the trip.
