Disused silage tower, Close Farm
Disused silage tower, Close Farm
Given the height of the fence, I estimate this to be about 10m in height or approx 33 feet. Silage towers were built in small numbers between the two world wars, but were not generally adopted until the 1960s. They were used for the airtight storage of freshly cut grass and its conversion into silage. Viewed from the footpath to Broughton.
