Monument record TR 34 SW 2512 - Says Tower, outer curtain Dover Castle, Dover Castle
Summary
Says Tower, which is located between Peverells Tower and Cannons Gate, along the south western outer curtain wall of Dover Castle is one of a series of 13th-century towers dating from the reign of Henry III (1216-1272). It is one of three towers located along this stretch of the curtain wall, all of a similar date and in a similar style. (Gatton’s and Hurst towers are the other two). All of these have been altered or reduced in height to accommodate later (17th/18th-century) military requirements. (location accurate to the nearest 1m based on available information)
