'Britain's finest 20th century Folly Tower' and 'One of the most important and iconic follies in Britain'. This 100ft, 154 stairs unique Tower is in Faringdon. It is the last major folly to be built in England.

The views from the top are quite simply breathtaking and stunning. From the top, you look out across the amazing views of the Vale of the White Horse and Oxfordshire Downs.
