Known as 'The Pepperpot', this tall medieval tower is a landmark on the Island. Nice views and only a short walk from the carpark opposite the access path. Free.

Its history dates back to 1313AD when a boat was shipwrecked and a local Lord helped himself to all the communion wine onboard. It annoyed the Vatican who demanded that he build a lighthouse as penance. Nowadays it would be called Eucharistgate and the papers would say 'his position has become untenable'.
