Martello Tower, South Felixstowe
Now used as a coastguard lookout, this Martello tower is one of three surviving at Felixstowe, the others being at the Old Felixstowe end. I'm sure there would have been more towards the centre of the front but I guess they were demolished because the land was valuable for something else, or maybe the sea has taken them. The Aldeburgh one (the most northerly) has lost part of its moat and one at Bawdsey is threatened by the sea. Despite their bulk they can be demolished, as witnessed by the foundations in the gardens of Bawdsey Manor.
In the foreground we see a very smart beach hut.

The Martello Tower in Felixstowe
Martello towers are small defensive forts built during the 19th century, from the time of the Napoleonic Wars onwards. They stand up to 40 feet (12m) high and have two floors, commonly housing a garrison comprising one officer and 15 to 25 men. Their round structure and thick walls of solid masonry made them resistant to cannon fire, while their height made them an ideal platform for a single heavy artillery piece which was mounted on the flat roof and able to traverse a 360° arc. With the introduction of powerful rifled artillery they became obsolete but many have survived, sometimes converted into private dwellings, housing a museum or used by the coastguard, such as this one. Many are preserved as historic monuments.
