St Ouen D, High Tower




This tower has various names, in addition to its designation 'D' as the fourth of four towers leading up from the southern end of the bay. It was commonly known as the High Tower, because it was taller than the Martello type towers to its north. It was also sometimes known as St Ouen No 3 tower, when it was the third remaining tower in the bay. Another names was L'Ouziere Tower, because of its location in the area known by this name. During the 1930s a garage and two bungalows were built just inland from the tower by Leonard Taylor. These buildings and the tower itself were destroyed by the Germans during the Occupation
