Hiorne Tower

Not far from Arundel is the 1797 tower built by Francis Hiorne as he bid for the contract to rebuild the castle. Today, it stands alone in the landscape, a wonderful, purposeless folly. Hiorne never won the contract he desired, and he died two years later, but his Tower did achieve greatness. It went on to star in Doctor Who.

Parking: Park in one of Arundel’s many car parks. The tower is located on the Arundel estate south west of Swanbourne Lake.
