SX8786 : Haldon Belvedere
near to Doddiscombsleigh, Devon, Great Britain

Haldon Belvedere
Also known as Lawrence Castle, and built in 1788 by Sir Robert Palk to commemorate General Stringer Lawrence. The triangular tower is a major landmark in South Devon, visible for miles (eg SX8181 : North-east of Shaptor and SY1296 : Raxhayes Farm from Westgate Hill ), and more visible since being restored and painted some years ago. View from the east.
