RDF Tower: DoB ID: not recorded

The remains of the first of four separate HFDF sites (I've numbered them 1 to 4 for identification purposes) can be found to the south of the windmill. The octagonal brick blast wall that once protected the wooden tower has vanished, although traces of the brickwork are still visible around the tower's concrete foundations. There is also a rectangular concrete platform in front whose purpose is unknown, a corner of which is visible in the photo.
