Buzza Tower
Image: © Bob Embleton Taken: 6 Aug 2008
Built as a windmill in 1834 to replace the Peninnis Mill, but maintained as a memorial since 1912 to King Edward's visit. It was named King Edward's Tower, but is commonly known now as the Buzza Tower. It is close to a hilltop chambered cairn and may be erected on top of another. It provides splendid views all round and shelter from the wind and driving rain.
