Description
SD 48 SE MILNTHORPE A6 (off East side)
3/1 St Anthony's Tower approx.150 m East of A6 North of Milnthorpe
II
Folly in shape of Tower. Probably early C19 (recorded as in existence by 1832). Stone rubble with dressed stone corniced parapet. Circular plan. 2 storeys. 5 window openings, not glazed with roughly cut lintels and cills and and doors approached by flight of external steps at first floor. Ground floor has window opening to south and slit openings to remaining sides. Visible as landscape feature from some considerable distance all round, notably from Dallam Towers whose owner in 1832 prevented any further extension of the development along Church Street in Milnthorpe so that his view of the folly from his house was not obscured.
