My Gran is a mind of wonderful information.
When she heard about my How Hill project, she told me the extent of her knowledge on the location:
it was featured in an episode of 'Flambards' and my mum's grandad had a sister who narried Pete Holder and lived in the tower for a short while.
I'm going to visit my gran again later this week and drag out some more information about that one.
In the mean time, I found the clip from 'Flambards'. Since the series is set in North Yorkshire I assumed that the whole story would be set on How Hill, but in fact it only features for a mere minute in one single episode. It's still weird to see the tower un-boarded and in use.
It's also weird to see a lady on a horse in Edwardian attire stood up there. Odd...
Everything I find about the tower makes the story weirder. It's still a mystery, no matter how much I have found out about it.
