This Neo-Gothic folly built by Sir William Paxton and is known to have been erected in honour of Lord Nelson.

Situated on the top of a hill near Llanarthney in the River Tywi and can easily be seen from the National Botanical Gardens, offers stunning views even on a cold and windy day and makes a wonderful location for a picnic.
