Broadway Tower
The tower was built at the expense of Lord Coventry. Starting the construction of the Broadway Tower, the Lord believed that the building would act as a kind of beacon for the whole neighborhood in case of unexpected situations. The Broadway Tower has become a Gothic structure, and work on it was completed at the very end of the 18th century, in 1797.
In 1943, a bomber crashed into Beacon Hills, two hundred meters from the Broadway Tower and a tenant farmer who was also a member of the Royal Observer Corps. The farmer hurried to the crash site and tried to save lives. His deed was marked by Sir W. Churchill.
