Broadway Tower
Broadway Tower was the brainchild of the great 18th century landscape gardener, Capability Brown. His vision was carried out for George William, 6th Earl of Coventry with the help of renowned architect James Wyatt and completed in 1798.
The location for the Tower was wisely chosen: a dramatic outlook on a pre-medieval trading route and beacon hill.
Wyatt designed his "Saxon Tower" as an eccentric amalgamation of architectural components ranging from turrets, battlements and gargoyles to balconies.
The Tower stands 65 feet (20 metres) high.
