Welcome to 2021 at the Tower.
With the Covid pandemic ongoing, we opened to the public on the 23rd of May, 2021.
With new displays, and a major spring clean, the team were eager to welcome guests to step back in time to the 1940's

"A" is for art.
After a visit from a local primary school to have a look around the tower, the children could not wait to go back to class,
and draw some pictures.
As you can see, some brilliant drawings.
Thank you to Mrs Sturgeon, and Pine Class, from
Rougham Primary School.
Paul Tuck
Talking of great pictures, these are amazing.
Paul was in a bad car accident a while back. Against the odds, he pulled through, and sent these great drawings through to the tower.
We wish Paul all the best in his recovery.
