Gothic Tower Approximately 95 Metres South Of Goldney House

The Gothic tower, built in 1764, is located approximately 95 metres south of Goldney House in Bristol. Constructed from red sandstone rubble with limestone dressings, the tower features a Gothick style. It is a four-stage round tower topped with a crenellated parapet and square pyramidal pinnacles. The entrance is a two-centred arched doorway with impost blocks, located beneath a semicircular-arched window in the third stage, which has an open brickwork panel. The upper stages are adorned with tall narrow windows featuring Y-tracery and oculi between the fourth stage. The interior has not been inspected. This tower was built by Thomas Goldney to accommodate a steam engine used for pumping water to supply the grotto cascade.
