Questions about Hicks Tower

Is Hicks Tower on the National Inventory?

Yes: rated National (record 11344040).

Can you visit Hicks Tower?

It can be seen from the street; whether you can go inside depends on its owner.

When was Hicks Tower built?

Its National Inventory record dates it to 1800–1810.

Is Hicks Tower protected?

Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
