Braystones Tower
Built by local squire William Henry Watson to commemorate Queen Victoria's diamond jubilee in 1897. On this side a sandstone plaque was inserted in c.1920 to record the names of the men of the parish who served in the Great War.
The tower was built of snecked sandstone rubble with roughly dressed quoins and tooled dressings. It was formerly floored (now gutted) 3 stages with battlemented parapet (slightly corbelled) and corner turret. The local farmer climbed to the top in 2012 to fly the flag for Queen Elizabeth's diamond jubilee; see his story and attempts to save the tower here: http://www.fwi.co.uk/farm-life/farmer-has-towering-restoration-ambition.htm
