Business Description

The Cow Tower, located in Norwich, Norfolk, England, is a historic artillery tower built in 1398-1399 to defend the city from threats posed by France and English rebels. It was strategically positioned near the River Wensum and featured thick walls with gunports and wide embrasures for firing artillery. The tower, now managed by English Heritage and Norwich City Council, is a rare example of a purpose-built artillery blockhouse from this period and is recognized for its fine medieval brickwork.
