| Barnston Towers This intriguing tower may look like old defensive battlements however they are merely elaborately decorated gate houses from the mid 19th century. Barnston Towers was built in 1852 based upon an earlier building which was built from a circular brick castellated design and associated with a house and stables. Two were originally constructed as part of the design however one has previously been demolished. I have been told that there is a maritime connection with these towers but i have not yet been able to discover how. It may be that the owners were once merchants who made their money importing goods, or it may simply be that their owner was a pilot or captain. I am looking for more information on these towers, if you think you have some further info please contact me at: info@oldwirral.com |
