This Martello Tower was originally built by the British when they were threatened by the armies of Napoleon. It was part of a string of 29 fortresses that dotted the British coastline. Each was home to a garrison of 25 men and was designed to give the maximum range to four guns each firing ship-maiming cannonballs. It has since been converted into a holiday apartment. The rooftop has amazing views of blasted skies and the dramatic English shoreline. (Aldeburgh, England)
