Nice. If you hadn't given its history, I would have assumed it was a signal tower, built to enable messages to be passed on from one tower to the next by semaphore. They didn't survive the electric telegraph.

This is The Folly in Faringdon, Oxfordshire, UK on a
beautiful June evening.  It is a 100-foot hilltop
tower that was built in 1935 by a local worthy, to
provide employment to local craftsmen.  It was
restored several years ago and is occasionally open,
but I've never been inside.
