St Osyth: Martello Tower A at Point Clear
The east coast Martello Towers were built between 1808 and 1812. 29 were built from St Osyth in Essex north-eastwards to Aldeburgh in Suffolk, and are named by Historic England in the same order from A to Z then AA to CC, so this is the first tower in the sequence.
The east coast towers are not circular nor oval in plan, but more of a triangular ovoid for want of a better term.
This one is a Scheduled Monument and a Grade II Listed Building. It is currently in use as the East Essex Aviation Society's Museum. The red and white stripes are on the front of World War I tank in front of the tower.
