Gazebo Tower, Ross-on-Wye

An information plaque states that the tower was built as a viewing point along with the mock Gothic town walls in 1833, when Wilton Road was built. Originally known as Collins Tower, this is one of the finest examples of a folly in Herefordshire. It gives panoramic views across the famous horseshoe bend in the River Wye, and the surrounding countryside. In September 2001, the tower was sold by Herefordshire Council to a private owner who uses the tower as a holiday home. Visitors can enter the tower on various open days held during the year. Any donations received are given to local charities.
