A Finney provided us with clippings about this a lost tower to an 1857 VC winner. Understood to have been a 40ft tower by Pugin, resembling the water bastion at which Everard Aloysius Lisle Phillips was killed. Informed 2010 by the Squire De Lisle that there are existing images of the tower, but that it was taken down at the request of the community. It was dedicated to the VC winner who is buried at Mount St Bernard's Abbey, Everard Aloysius Phillips Lisle. A photograph can be seen at http://www.thepuginsociety.co.uk/miscellaneous.html
