Description
The Sugarloaf is an early 19th-century obelisk or eye-catcher located on high ground, serving as a landmark. It was erected by John Fuller, known as "Mad Jack," of Brightling Park, previously called Rose Hill in the nearby parish of Brightling. The structure is likely designed by Sir Robert Smirke and features a conical hollow shape topped with a ball cap. It is constructed from stone and coated with cement. The obelisk has a pointed doorway and two pointed windows, one of which is now blocked. The interior is shaped like a bee-hive with a domed roof and is said to have once been inhabited as a cottage.
