This medieval tower was built in the early 15th century. You can climb the tower most weekends and bank holidays from Easter to September, although the tower may have to close unexpectedly in bad weather. During the climb, you are able to see the workings of the clock and learn about some of its history. There is also a view from the top. Plaques in the surrounding area give more historical context.
