The Prospect Tower at Cotehele
An isolated prospect tower on a hilltop north of Cotehele House; thought to date from the 18th century. The upright monolith on the left of the picture is a relatively modern gatepost, from an earlier layout of the field.
National Trust

A National Trust is an organization dedicated to preserving the cultural or environmental treasures of a particular geographic region. They generally operate as private non-profit organizations, although some receive considerable support from their national government. The first such organization was the National Trust for Places of Historic Interest or Natural Beauty, which is the National Trust of England, Wales and Northern Ireland, formed in 1895 and operating as a charitable organisation.
