Keppel's column from Scholes Lane
At 115 feet, Keppel's Column is the tallest of the Wentworth follies; it was originally planned to be even taller and capped with a statue of Admiral Keppel, but evidently the Marquis of Rockingham ran short of funds! Notes from http://www.wentworthvillage.net/keppelscolumn.shtml

Keppel's Column, Scholes
The column is 35m high, and built in 1778 in honour of Admiral Augustus Viscount Keppel. Due to coal mining subsidence the column is no longer open to the public.

Keppel's Column
The 35m column, a grade II* listed monument, was built in the late 18th century to commemorate the acquittal of the court-martialled Admiral Augustus Keppel after the Battle of Ushant. It visibly bulges due to an entasis correction, which was rendered inappropriate when funding problems reduced the height. http://www.wentworthvillage.net/keppelscolumn.shtml
