Built in 1750 by architect and Lord of Horton Manor, Humphrey Sturt, who was also an MP for Dorset (1745 - 1786).
The tower has found a new purpose as a place to house mobile phone signal masts - fixed discreetly to its sides, near the top of the tower - with mobile phone company Vodafone undertaking some restoration work after they received planning permission to attach the masts.
