Where Am I? No. 12a - Part Two of "Cazza's House"

[ScouseBoy]

The Irish Sea could be visible from the tower?

So a business man or merchant could observe his ships approaching Liverpool?

I think this is a more up to date view of that property.

The address is given as Angley Road, which is the main road close to Waterloo Road.

I think this is the terrace of houses in the other description:

Thank you Nell ,

Glad I didn't see that one first. I might have really had an accident. Gee that tower would have blinded me to everything else - similar styles though 

Added: I think style-wise we are in the right part of England - Kent, Sussex and maybe Hampshire etc

How odd, that's the house I've just been looking at on this website.

Did one particular railway company  favour towers on its platforms.  That may be  another good search avenue?

After you mentioned it before I looked at disused stations. There were also some close but no cigar type buildings

This gives a bit more information including the architect.

That makes sense.

     Another excellent website.
          www.theweald.org/sitecontent.asp
     A lot of the houses are probably much older than Cazza's house but if you like old buildings and looking at old photographs then have a look.
     If the house is in this area then I'm not surprised there is a lookout tower. Some of the views are just perfect. Beautiful part of the country.
