King Alfred's Tower is a triangular tower raised in memory of King Alfred, who is said to have raised his standard here in 870 AD. It also commemorates George III in 1760 and the end of the seven years war. It was built by the owner of the Stourhead estate. Now owned and managed by the National Trust.

Alfred's Tower is a folly in Somerset,[1][2] England, on the edge of the border with Wiltshire, on the Stourhead estate. The tower stands on Kingsettle Hill and belongs to the National Trust. It is designated as a Grade I listed building.

Great views southwest across the Somerset Levels from this little hill on the edge of Cucklington. The viewpoint is at about 135m high and there is a bench to stop and take a break.

You might start looking at estate agent websites after meandering around Cucklington as the village and its views are jaw-dropping. Apart from far-reaching views of the patchwork countryside, you'll find a magnificent 13th-century church here too. Located between Gillingham and Wincanton, there are plenty of footpaths and lanes leading to this charming place.

It's not every day that you come across a thatched church. This wonderful little building was constructed in 1921. It was the idea of Alfred Manger, who owned the land and wanted to provide a closer church for local parishioners. Manger died in 1917 but his family carried out his wish and had the church built in memory of those who lost their lives in the First World War.

Bring a camera if you can.

Lovely little bench to take stop at.
