Signage suggests a certain amount of doubt about the origins of this tower, though it seems most likely that is served no real purpose and is therefore a "folly". It seems probable that there is a pleasant view from the top, but access seems to be blocked to those who are not prepared to climb the outside - not an attractive proposition on this cold misty February day in soaking wet boots after a longish walk.
