    A decent attraction. No ticket needed, the stairs are quite high but there's plenty to read and do on the way up.

    A hidden gem. A really interesting piece of forgotten/unknown history to visit. The views were spectacular. Totally off the beaten track. Poorly signposted for what is a spot that is well worth a visit. No tickets needed. No toilet facilities.

    Brief visit with family, good area for picnic and a walk with family. Tower was interesting with good views, what more can you ask for without spending money. We was there for about 90 mins Inc small walk around the trail.

    I was at the nearby @CWGC Guards Grave cemetery, saw the sign and was intrigued... this was more than just a tower. Lots of information available in English and in French. There’s the the opportunity to walk around the woods too and even have a quiet stop for a picnic.

    Great view of the area, a lot of WW1 and WW2 related information in the area.

    Giant views once at the top of this 25m observation tower with very interesting facts on each floor. No public conveniences though.

    Excellent way to spend an hour. Great views and lots of interesting facts and activities for children.

    Good free outdoor small museum. Loads of information and a small circular walk.
