EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Beacon of Maritime History: The Naze Tower at Walton-on-the-Naze, Essex, Circa 1900" 2.. The Naze Tower at Walton-on-the-Naze, Essex, stands proudly on the cliffs as an enduring symbol of maritime history. Built in 1721 by Trinity House, this 86-feet tall octagonal tower served as a vital navigation mark to guide shipping approaching Harwich. With its distinctive crenellation and elegant design, it is the only building of its type and era in the UK, earning it a Grade II* listed status. In the early 1900s, communication with approaching ships was limited to semaphore signalling or a display of flags. The Naze Tower played a crucial role in this system, transmitting essential information to ensure safe passage for vessels navigating the treacherous waters off the Essex coast. This photograph, taken circa 1900, captures the Victorian and Edwardian charm of the Naze Tower, with its intricate detailing and historic significance. The tower's imposing presence against the backdrop of the cliffs and the vast expanse of the sea highlights its importance as a landmark and a testament to the rich maritime history of Walton-on-the-Naze and Essex. Mary Evans Picture Library/The Pete Frost Collection, kindly provides this evocative glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on a bygone era.
