I donít know why I have never gotten around to visiting this quite local round tower before, but I decided to pop in and see it today. The tower is very complete and, I would guess, quite original judging from its homely, shabby appearance.
The top windows seem to have been removed and the roof slates are very uneven and untidy. There is a small cross on the apex of its conical roof. The door is unusually at ground level.
If you visit this site then I suggest that you do so in the early morning because the sun will be behind you then and not blinding you from behind the tower (as it was me when I visited).
