Description

Lady’s Tower is a late 18th century circular summerhouse, constructed from rubble and originally a dressing room for Lady Anstruther when she bathed. The building is a shell, having lost its roof, and features a door facing north and three pointed windows on the southern side. A fireplace is built into the north wall. The tower is noted as a ruin on an 1855 Ordnance Survey map and is a group feature with Elie House.
