Folly Tower at Talacre Abbey

A 2-stage tower of rubble-stone walls built partly on exposed bedrock, but in ruinous condition and obscured by vegetation. The main pointed doorway is in the N wall, while in the E wall is a doorway leading to stairs to the upper stage. On the W side is a shallow projection with a second lower-stage doorway, and an attached wall. The upper stage has large openings in the N and W walls, and a small opening in the E wall.

In the lower stage is a shell room, incorporating fireplace and bench, in which the walls are covered with shells and quartz. The projection on the W side incorporates side benches.
