bericht van Gardner

Broadway Tower is an 18th-century folly located near the village of Broadway in Worcestershire, England. It stands atop Broadway Hill at an elevation of 1,024 feet (312 m), 65 feet (20 m) tall with three round corner turrets and battlements. The tower was designed by James Wyatt in 1794 for Barbara, Countess of Coventry, to find out if a beacon on this hill could be seen from her house in Worcester. Despite being a folly, it is a functional building with interior rooms. Broadway Tower Country Park now holds exhibitions open to the public, as well as a gift shop and restaurant. It's also known for being the site where William Morris, Edward Burne-Jones, and Dante Gabriel Rossetti once visited their friend, Cormell Price.
