Batemans Tower before the storm.
Batemans Tower moments before the storm arrived.
I know Bateman's Tower has been photographed to death but I could not resist the incoming tide and stormy sky. Bateman's Tower in Brightlingsea Essex, the light in this image is fantastic and is further enhanced by the incoming storm clouds. In 1883 John Bateman built Bateman's tower as a folly for his daughter to recuperate from consumption; however it is believed to have been intended as a lighthouse as part of a failed plan to expand the port. The tower is situated at the entrance to Brightlingsea Creek on the River Colne and is often mistaken for a Martello Tower. During The Second World War the original roof of the folly was removed so that the tower could be used as an observation post by the Royal Observer Corps. A restoration project in 2005 funded by The Heritage Lottery Fund took place to restore the tower to its original condition, including the fitting of a replica of the original roof, refurbishing the interior of the tower and also painting the outside. Bateman's Tower is leaning slightly due to the poor foundations on which it was originally built.
