With stunning views, originally on this site was a roman watch tower, the folly you see today is a rebuild of tower built around 1765 to 1770 and renovated around 1831 but due to it being open to the elements it began to fall into a state of disrepair during the 1930's, in 1994 the folly was restored to it original state and reopened to the public, the folly is located on a working farm close to Pontypool Park.

Sadly closed but it opens on some holidays. Worth the trip to see the views of the Bristol channel, Pontypool, the Skirrid Mountain, the Sugarloaf mountain and Llandegfedd reservoir
