Martello Tower, Aldeburgh: Hold the fort on Suffolk's coastline

You cannot miss the Martello Tower. It stands on the edge of the Aldeburgh shingle, between the River Alde and the sea, like a golden giant. Made of more than a million bricks, it was built between 1808 and 1812 to keep Napoleon out. In 1931, the Ministry of Defence sold it off and the Mitford family were among those who spent holidays here.
