Designed by Henry Flitcroft for Henry Hoare II in 1772, King Alfred’s Tower is a 160ft (49m) high folly, standing in the grounds of the National Trust's Stourhead estate. The tower commemorates the accession of George III to the throne in 1760 and the end of the Seven Years War, with its position believed to be where King Alfred the Great rallied his troops in 878.
