Horton tower 1

Horton tower is a substantial brick-built structure, in an isolated position above the village. It was built in the mid 18th century by Humphrey Sturt -- allegedly so that, when he grew too old to ride to hounds, he could still watch the progress of the local hunt from the top of his tower. I find this story unconvincing, myself. If he was so old and decrepit, how did he get up the tower? The tower is now used as a mobile phone transmitter.
