Description
The Racton Monument is a folly or landmark located in Stoughton, built by Lord Halifax between 1766 and 1775, with the architect being Theodosius Kelne. The structure is made of red brick and was originally faced with flints, although most of the flint facing has now disappeared. It has a triangular base with a small round turret at each angle, which was originally taller than it is now. The monument features a tall central circular tower that consists of four storeys.
