J. Blair James Macadam Matthew Young |
046 | This name is given to what two years ago was a plain wall about 12 feet high with a circular piece of masonry connected with the centre. It is situated on the summit of Patna Hill, and the motive of erection was to give greater elevation to a bonfire which was annually lighted to commemorate the birthday of a neighbouring proprietor. The word tower is not very correctly applied in this instance but it is the only one by which the object is known in the district |
